Ingredients

Salmon and Vegetables

  • 4 (6 ounce) salmon filets, cut into bite-size chunks
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle powder or cayenne chili flakes
  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 3 cups broccoli florets or chopped asparagus or a mix
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Avocado wedges, for serving
  • Sesame seeds, for serving

Honey Garlic Sauce

  • 1/3 cup tamari or soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 6 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 3-4 tablespoons chili paste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

Spicy Creamy Sauce

  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1-2 tablespoons gochujang
  • 2 teaspoons honey

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Sheet Pan: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Rub a sheet pan with some olive oil to prevent sticking and help with roasting.
  2. Season Salmon and Vegetables: On the sheet pan, mix the salmon chunks with 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, chipotle powder or cayenne chili flakes, and 2 tablespoons olive oil, tossing to coat evenly. Arrange the salmon on one side of the sheet pan. On the other side, spread out the broccoli or asparagus, tossing it with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper to season.
  3. Roast Salmon and Vegetables: Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast for 10-15 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through and vegetables are tender-crisp.
  4. Make Honey Garlic Sauce: While roasting, combine tamari or soy sauce, honey, chopped garlic, ground ginger, chili paste, chopped green onions, and toasted sesame oil in a bowl or glass jar. Mix well to create a flavorful honey garlic sauce.
  5. Make Spicy Creamy Sauce: In another small bowl, whisk together mayo, gochujang, and honey until smooth and creamy. Set aside for serving.
  6. Glaze Salmon with Sauce: Remove vegetables from the sheet pan and set aside. Pour the prepared honey garlic sauce over the salmon on the sheet pan, tossing gently to coat all pieces. Return the sauced salmon to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes to let the sauce bake onto the salmon.
  7. Assemble Bowls and Serve: Divide the roasted vegetables and glazed salmon into serving bowls. Add avocado wedges on the side and drizzle or dollop with the spicy creamy sauce. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds for garnish. Serve immediately, optionally over coconut rice for a complete meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute broccoli with asparagus or a mix for variety.
  • The chipotle powder can be replaced with cayenne or red chili flakes based on your spice preference.
  • Adjust the amount of chili paste in the honey garlic sauce to control the heat level.
  • For a gluten-free dish, be sure to use tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Avocado adds creaminess and balances the heat, but can be omitted if preferred.
  • Serving this over coconut rice or steamed jasmine rice makes it a more filling meal.
