Ingredients
Scale
Salmon and Glaze
- 1 salmon fillet (5–6 oz)
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
Vegetables
- 1 cup green beans, trimmed
- 1 cup baby potatoes, halved
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare and Roast Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper to ensure even coating. Arrange them cut-side down on a baking sheet to promote crispiness and roast them for 20-25 minutes until golden and crunchy.
- Sauté Garlic Green Beans: While the potatoes roast, heat a small amount of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the trimmed green beans and minced garlic, sautéing for 5-6 minutes until the green beans turn bright green and are tender-crisp.
- Cook and Glaze Salmon: In another pan over medium heat, warm olive oil. Place the salmon fillet skin-side down and cook for 4-5 minutes to develop a crisp skin. Flip the salmon, then brush it generously with the honey-soy mixture made from combining honey and soy sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the glaze is caramelized and the salmon is cooked through.
- Plate and Serve: Serve the glazed salmon alongside the garlic sautéed green beans and crispy roasted potatoes. Optionally, sprinkle fresh parsley on top for a pop of color and added freshness.
Notes
- Ensure the potatoes are cut evenly for uniform roasting.
- If you prefer less sweetness, reduce the honey quantity to 2 teaspoons.
- For gluten-free option, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
- Be careful when cooking salmon skin-side down to avoid sticking; use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned skillet.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon for enhanced flavor.
