Chef's Note
For the perfect glaze consistency, make sure to watch carefully during the final broiling step - it can go from perfectly caramelized to burnt in seconds. If your salmon fillets are different thicknesses, place the thicker pieces toward the hotter part of your oven for more even cooking. You can also prepare the glaze a day ahead to save time and allow the flavors to meld.

Ingredients
1.5 pounds salmon fillets
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
4 cloves garlic
1 whole lemon
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups broccoli florets
2 medium bell peppers (mixed colors)
1 medium zucchini
1 medium red onion
1 cup cherry tomatoes
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2
Prepare the vegetables: Cut the bell peppers into 1-inch pieces, slice the zucchini into half-moons, cut the red onion into wedges, and leave cherry tomatoes whole. Place all vegetables in a large bowl.
- 3
Remove leaves from 4 sprigs of thyme and 2 sprigs of rosemary. Add to the vegetables along with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- 4
Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space for the salmon. Place in the oven and roast for 15 minutes.
- 5
While vegetables are roasting, prepare the salmon glaze. Mince 4 cloves of garlic and zest the lemon, then juice half of it (reserve the other half for serving).
- 6
In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- 7
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- 8
After vegetables have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the vegetables to the sides to make room for the salmon in the center.
- 9
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the baking sheet. Brush half of the honey garlic glaze over the salmon.
- 10
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is almost cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
- 11
Turn the oven to broil. Brush the remaining glaze over the salmon and broil for 2-3 minutes, until the glaze is caramelized and the salmon is fully cooked (internal temperature of 145°F or 63°C).
- 12
Remove from the oven and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds over the salmon. Cut the remaining lemon half into wedges.
- 13
Serve the salmon with the roasted vegetables and lemon wedges on the side.

Easiest recipe ever. Roast veggies were phenomenal and actually got my son to eat zucchini.
