Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger, 1 tbsp honey, and 3 minced garlic cloves until combined.
  2. Step 2: Place 4 salmon fillets skin-side down on a lined sheet pan and brush each evenly with the ginger-soy glaze. Toss 12 oz trimmed green beans in 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and black pepper, then arrange them around the salmon.
  3. Step 3: Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the green beans are tender-crisp. Remove from oven and drizzle 2 tsp sesame oil over the green beans.
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds over the salmon and green beans before serving.
