Sheet Pan Orange Ginger Salmon with Broccoli is a delectable and nutritious dish that's perfect for busy weeknights. This easy sheet pan recipe combines succulent salmon fillets with tender broccoli, all glazed with a vibrant orange ginger sauce.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
1 pound broccoli florets
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium recommended)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, honey (or maple syrup), sesame oil, and red pepper flakes.
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour half of the marinade over the salmon, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until evenly coated.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Place the marinated salmon fillets in the center and arrange the broccoli around them.
Pour the remaining marinade over the broccoli and salmon.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the broccoli is tender and slightly charred.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.
