Ingredients
  

4 boneless salmon fillets (approximately 6 oz each)

2 cups broccoli florets, fresh or frozen

1/4 cup honey

4 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free option)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Sesame seeds, for garnish

Fresh parsley or sliced green onions, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    In a mixing bowl, thoroughly whisk together the honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and grated ginger (if using). This aromatic mixture will serve as your marinade.

      Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the salmon fillets on one side of the sheet. Generously brush half of the honey garlic marinade over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated for maximum flavor.

        On the opposite side of the baking sheet, spread out the broccoli florets. Pour the remaining honey garlic marinade over the broccoli, and gently toss to ensure each piece is coated evenly.

          Season both the salmon and broccoli with salt and pepper to your taste preference.

            Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15-20 minutes. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork, and the broccoli should be tender while retaining its vibrant color.

              Once cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes. This resting period will help the flavors meld beautifully.

                Just before serving, sprinkle sesame seeds over both the salmon and broccoli for added texture and a nutty flavor. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley or sliced green onions for an inviting touch.

                  Serve your delightful one-pan meal immediately and savor the delicious combination of flavors!
