Asian Salmon Sheet Pan Dinner
- Serves: 4
- Prep Time: 10 min
- Cook Time: 20 min
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 (1½ -pound) salmon fillet, cut into 4 pieces
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 4 medium carrots, peeled, and cut into 3-inch matchsticks
- 3 green onions, white and green parts, minced (optional)
- 4 cups cooked rice, for serving (optional)
Method
Preheat the oven to 400°F with a rack in the center position.
In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar, sesame oil, soy sauce, cilantro, ginger, garlic, and sesame seeds.
Place the salmon, broccoli and carrots on a large rimmed sheet pan. Drizzle half of the sauce over the entire sheet pan and toss to coat.
Bake until the salmon easily flakes with a fork and vegetables are tender, about 12 minutes. If the vegetables need a few more minutes, transfer the salmon to a serving platter to rest and continue to roast the vegetables until tender. Transfer the vegetables to the serving platter with salmon.
Drizzle with remaining sauce, sprinkle with green onions and serve warm alongside the rice, if using.
