Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 skin-on salmon fillets (6 ounces / 170 grams each)
  • 4 cups broccoli florets (about 300 grams), trimmed into bite-sized pieces
  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce (120 ml)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (30 ml)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds, for garnish
  • 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced for garnish
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, toss 4 cups of broccoli florets with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the broccoli evenly on one side of a parchment-lined sheet pan.
  4. Pat the skin-on salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them skin-side down on the other half of the sheet pan, leaving space between each piece.
  5. Brush the tops and sides of the salmon generously with ½ cup of teriyaki sauce. If using fresh ginger, mix it into the sauce before brushing.
  6. Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the broccoli is tender with golden edges.
  7. Switch the oven to broil and broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to crisp the salmon skin and caramelize the teriyaki glaze. Watch closely to avoid burning.
  8. Remove from oven and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
  9. Let the salmon rest for 1-2 minutes before serving.

Notes

Pat salmon skin dry before cooking to ensure crispiness. Avoid overcrowding the pan for even roasting. Use a thin, even layer of teriyaki sauce to prevent soggy skin. Broil at the end for 2-3 minutes to crisp skin and caramelize glaze, watching closely to avoid burning. Leftovers keep well for up to 2 days; reheat gently to maintain crispiness. Substitute vegetables like asparagus or green beans if desired. For gluten-free, use tamari instead of regular teriyaki sauce.
