Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss 2 medium peeled and cubed sweet potatoes with 1 tsp sesame oil and 1/4 tsp salt, spreading evenly on a sheet pan. Roast for 15 minutes.
  2. Step 2: While potatoes roast, mix 2 tbsp gochujang, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp rice vinegar, and 2 minced garlic cloves in a small bowl. Brush half the mixture over 8 oz salmon fillets.
  3. Step 3: After 15 minutes, add 1 cup broccoli florets to the sheet pan with potatoes. Place salmon on top, brush with remaining glaze. Roast 12-15 minutes until salmon flakes easily and potatoes are tender.
