Ingredients
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- 2In a large bowl, toss the trimmed green beans and carrot sticks with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until evenly coated. Spread them in a single layer on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
- 3Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. While they are roasting, prepare the glaze and salmon.
- 4For the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce (or Tamari), minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, and optional grated ginger until well combined. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels.
- 5After the vegetables have roasted for 10 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Place the salmon fillets on the other side of the baking sheet, leaving some space between them. Brush about half of the honey garlic glaze generously over the top of each salmon fillet.
- 6Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue to roast for another 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender-crisp and lightly caramelized. You can brush the remaining glaze on the salmon halfway through this second bake. Garnish with fresh parsley or sesame seeds if desired, and serve immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when the salmon is cooked perfectly?
Salmon is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 63°C (145°F) at its thickest part, or when it flakes easily with a fork. Overcooked salmon can be dry, so watch it closely.
Can I use other vegetables?
Yes, absolutely! Broccoli florets, bell pepper strips, or asparagus spears would also work well. Adjust roasting times as needed for different vegetables.
Can I make the glaze ahead of time?
Yes, the honey garlic glaze can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Whisk it well before using.
