# What You'll Need:

→ Salmon

01 - 4 skin-on salmon fillets (5–6 oz each)

→ Vegetables

02 - 2 cups broccoli florets
03 - 2 cups sugar snap peas, trimmed
04 - 1 red bell pepper, sliced (optional)

→ Teriyaki Sauce

05 - 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
06 - 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
07 - 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
08 - 1 tablespoon sesame oil
09 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
10 - 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
11 - 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons water

→ Garnishes

12 - 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
13 - 2 scallions, thinly sliced
14 - Lime wedges

# How-To Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
02 - In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Bring to a gentle simmer, then stir in the cornstarch slurry. Cook, whisking, until thickened (about 1–2 minutes). Remove from heat.
03 - Arrange salmon fillets on one side of the prepared sheet pan. Brush each fillet generously with teriyaki sauce, reserving some for the vegetables.
04 - In a bowl, toss broccoli, snap peas, and bell pepper with a drizzle of olive oil and a tablespoon of the teriyaki sauce. Spread vegetables in a single layer beside the salmon.
05 - Roast for 15–18 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily and vegetables are crisp-tender.
06 - Broil for 1–2 minutes at the end for extra caramelization, if desired.
07 - Drizzle remaining teriyaki sauce over salmon and vegetables. Garnish with sesame seeds, scallions, and a squeeze of lime. Serve immediately.
