easy miso glazed salmon sheet pan dinner - featured image

A quick and flavorful weeknight dinner featuring salmon fillets glazed with a savory-sweet miso sauce and roasted alongside tender-crisp broccolini on a single sheet pan for minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 skin-on salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
  • 1 bunch broccolini (about 8 ounces), trimmed
  • 3 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together white miso paste, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil until smooth and glossy.
  3. Trim the broccolini by snapping off any tough ends. Toss the broccolini with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
  4. Arrange the salmon fillets skin-side down on one side of the sheet pan, leaving space between each piece. Spread the broccolini evenly on the other side without overcrowding.
  5. Brush the miso glaze generously over each salmon fillet, coating the top and sides. Allow some glaze to drip onto the broccolini for extra flavor.
  6. Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork and the broccolini is bright green with crispy edges.
  7. Optional: Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end to caramelize the glaze further, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  8. Remove from oven and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.

Notes

Use skin-on salmon for better texture and moisture retention. Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure broccolini crisps properly. Thin the miso paste with a teaspoon or two of water if glaze is too thick. Fresh ginger is essential for flavor. Let salmon rest after roasting for best juiciness. Optional broil step adds extra caramelization but watch carefully to avoid burning. For gluten-free, substitute soy sauce with tamari. Leftovers keep well for up to 2 days; reheat gently to avoid drying out.
