Description
A delicious and easy recipe for Teriyaki Salmon with Broccoli, perfect for a healthy meal.
Ingredients
- 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
- Cooked rice for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
- In another bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth, then add it to the soy sauce mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet and pour half of the teriyaki sauce over them, reserving the other half for later.
- Arrange the broccoli florets around the salmon on the baking sheet. Drizzle a little olive oil over the broccoli and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- While the salmon and broccoli are baking, heat the reserved teriyaki sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat until it thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
- Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and drizzle the thickened sauce over the fillets. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
- Serve the salmon and broccoli over cooked rice, drizzling any remaining sauce on top.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a teaspoon of sriracha to the teriyaki sauce.
- You can substitute the broccoli with other vegetables like snap peas or bell peppers for variety.
