A quick and healthy sheet pan dinner featuring honey mustard glazed salmon and fresh spring vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz / 170 g each), skin on
  • 3 tbsp honey (raw or local preferred)
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 bunch asparagus spears, trimmed
  • 1 cup baby carrots, peeled if needed
  • 1 cup sugar snap peas, trimmed
  • 1 lb new potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth and glossy.
  3. Trim and prepare the vegetables: halve asparagus, peel baby carrots if needed, trim sugar snap peas, and halve or quarter new potatoes. Toss veggies with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme leaves.
  4. Spread the potatoes and carrots on the sheet pan and roast for about 12 minutes.
  5. Remove the pan from the oven. Pat salmon fillets dry and place skin-side down on the pan next to the veggies. Brush each fillet generously with the honey mustard glaze.
  6. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 12-15 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily, and veggies are tender-crisp with golden edges.
  7. Optional: Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra caramelization, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  8. Serve salmon and veggies immediately, drizzling any pan juices over the top.

Notes

Pat salmon dry before glazing to avoid steaming. Use room temperature salmon for even cooking. Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure proper roasting. Parboil potatoes for 5 minutes if you want to speed up cooking. Broil briefly at the end for extra caramelization but watch carefully to prevent burning. The glaze can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
