Ingredients
- 4 (6 oz each), skin-on salmon fillets
- 2 tbsp white miso paste
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1.5 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup, thinly sliced carrots
- 1, thinly sliced red bell pepper
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
- 2, sliced diagonally green onions
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels; season both sides with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper.
- Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp white miso paste, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp rice vinegar until smooth. Brush half the glaze evenly over salmon skin side.
- Step 3: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon skin-side down; cook for 4 minutes until golden brown, then flip. Add broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper to the skillet; toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1/4 tsp salt. Cook for 2 minutes until veggies start to soften.
- Step 4: Transfer skillet to oven; roast for 12-15 minutes until salmon reaches 125°F internally and veggies are tender-crisp. Drizzle remaining glaze over salmon, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and top with sliced green onions. Serve immediately.
