Instructions
9 steps · tick them off as you cookPreheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, and 1 tbsp of the sesame oil until emulsified and glossy.
Toss the broccoli florets with the remaining 1 tbsp sesame oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then spread on one side of the sheet pan.
Pat the salmon fillets dry, season lightly with salt, and place skin-side down on the other side of the pan.
Brush the salmon generously with two-thirds of the honey-garlic glaze, letting it pool slightly on top.
Roast for 10-12 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the broccoli edges are charred and crispy.
10-12 minutesSwitch the oven to broil for 1-2 minutes to caramelize the glaze, watching carefully so it doesn't scorch.
1-2 minutesDrizzle the remaining glaze over the salmon, then sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and serve immediately over steamed rice.
Chef's tip
Reserve one-third of the glaze before brushing the raw salmon — drizzling the untouched portion over the cooked fish delivers a fresher, punchier honey-garlic flavour without any food safety worries.
Suggested pairing
Serve with fluffy jasmine rice and a chilled glass of off-dry Riesling to balance the sweet-salty glaze.
