Ingredients
  

  • For the Salmon and Marinade:
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each), skin-on or skinless
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (or lime juice)
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ tsp red chili flakes (optional, for heat)
  • For the Vegetables:
  • 2 cups green beans, trimmed
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and sliced into thin sticks
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Garnish (optional):
  • Lemon wedges
  • Chopped parsley or cilantro
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prepare the Honey Garlic Marinade : In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, pepper, and red chili flakes. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the sauce for brushing later.
  • Step 2: Marinate the Salmon : Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or zip-lock bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, coating evenly. Let marinate for 10–15 minutes while you prep the vegetables.
  • Step 3: Prep the Vegetables : On a large sheet pan lined with parchment paper or foil, spread out the green beans and carrots. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss well.
  • Step 4: Arrange and Bake : Move the vegetables to the sides of the pan and place the salmon fillets in the center. Brush each fillet with the reserved marinade for extra flavor. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15–18 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  • Step 5: Broil for a Golden Finish (Optional) : For a caramelized glaze, switch the oven to broil for 2–3 minutes at the end.
