Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets, skin-on, about 6 oz (170 g) each
  • 2 cups (150 g) broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 medium heads bok choy, halved or quartered lengthwise
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)
  • Green onions, thinly sliced for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil to make the teriyaki glaze. Adjust sweetness or acidity if needed.
  3. Place broccoli florets in a bowl, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper, and toss to coat evenly.
  4. Cut bok choy lengthwise into halves or quarters, drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
  5. Arrange broccoli and bok choy evenly on one side of a rimmed sheet pan, leaving space for the salmon.
  6. Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the other side of the sheet pan. Brush each fillet generously with the teriyaki glaze, reserving some for basting.
  7. Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes. At about 10 minutes, baste the salmon with more glaze to lock in flavor. Salmon should flake easily but remain moist.
  8. Remove from oven and sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the salmon and veggies.
  9. Serve hot with steamed jasmine rice or cauliflower rice, optionally drizzling extra teriyaki sauce on top.

Notes

[‘Use room temperature salmon by taking it out of the fridge 15 minutes before cooking for even cooking.’, ‘Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure proper roasting and crisp edges.’, ‘Baste salmon mid-roast to lock in moisture and flavor.’, ‘If salmon is thicker than 1 inch, add a couple of extra minutes to roasting time but watch closely to avoid drying out.’, ‘Toss broccoli and bok choy in oil before roasting to prevent steaming and achieve crisp-tender texture.’, ‘For less wilted bok choy, add it midway through roasting or remove early.’, ‘Substitute tamari for soy sauce to make the recipe gluten-free.’, ‘Simmer teriyaki glaze to thicken or add cornstarch slurry if desired.’, ‘Frozen salmon can be used if fully thawed and patted dry.’]
