A quick and easy sheet pan recipe featuring honey mustard glazed salmon and perfectly roasted vegetables, delivering a sweet, tangy, and savory meal with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Salmon fillets, skin-on, about 6 ounces (170g) each
  • 3 tablespoons honey mustard sauce (Dijon-based preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
  • Carrots, cut into sticks
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • Red onion wedges
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon mixed Italian seasoning or thyme (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes, carrot sticks, broccoli florets, and red onion wedges with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, pepper, and dried Italian seasoning. Spread them out in a single layer on one side of a large rimmed sheet pan.
  3. Roast the vegetables for 15 minutes, stirring or flipping halfway through to promote even browning.
  4. While the veggies roast, mix together honey mustard, minced garlic, lemon juice, and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small bowl until smooth.
  5. Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper. After the veggies have roasted 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and push veggies to one side to make space for the salmon fillets skin-side down.
  6. Brush each salmon fillet generously with the honey mustard glaze and place them on the pan next to the veggies.
  7. Return the pan to the oven and roast everything together for another 10-12 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily and glaze is caramelized but not burnt.
  8. Remove from oven and let rest for 2 minutes. Optionally, squeeze extra fresh lemon juice over salmon and veggies before serving.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to avoid soggy veggies and steamed salmon. Pat salmon dry before glazing to help the glaze stick and caramelize. Toss veggies halfway through roasting for even cooking. Let salmon rest after roasting for juicier texture. Use parchment paper or silicone baking mat for easier cleanup or skip for caramelized edges.
