Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Whisk miso paste, rice vinegar, maple syrup, and sesame oil in a small bowl until smooth.
  2. Step 2: Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush 2 tbsp miso glaze evenly over salmon. Arrange broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper around salmon. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Step 3: Roast for 15-18 minutes until salmon is opaque and vegetables are tender-crisp with browned edges. Drizzle remaining miso glaze over salmon, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and garnish with sliced green onions.

How do I store leftover Miso-Glazed Salmon with Sesame Roasted Vegetables?

Refrigerate in a covered airtight container for up to 3–4 days (FDA FoodKeeper guideline for cooked fish).

For aromatics, dried herbs at ⅓ the volume of fresh work in a pinch. The full ingredient list is shoppable on Instacart so you can see substitutes in real time.

How do I scale Miso-Glazed Salmon with Sesame Roasted Vegetables for a different number of people?

The recipe is written for 4 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 4). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.
