Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp grated ginger until smooth.
  2. Step 2: On a large sheet pan, toss 2 sliced carrots, 1 large sliced zucchini, and 1 sliced red bell pepper with 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Spread evenly.
  3. Step 3: Roast the vegetables in the oven for 15 minutes until they start to soften.
  4. Step 4: Remove the pan from the oven and place 4 barramundi fillets skin-side down on top of the vegetables.
  5. Step 5: Brush the honey soy mixture generously over each fillet. Return the pan to the oven and roast for an additional 10-12 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Step 6: Serve immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over the fish and vegetables.
