Print Recipe

A quick and easy weeknight dinner featuring salmon fillets glazed with a crispy honey mustard coating, roasted alongside broccolini and baby potatoes for a flavorful and texture-packed meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 skin-on salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 bunch broccolini or broccoli, trimmed
  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: fresh thyme or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and halve 1 pound of baby potatoes. Toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on one side of the sheet pan and roast for 15 minutes.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon olive oil, minced garlic, and lemon juice until smooth and glossy.
  4. Trim broccolini stems and toss with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil.
  5. After the potatoes have roasted 15 minutes, push them to one side of the sheet pan. Add broccolini and place salmon fillets skin-side down on the other side. Brush the honey mustard glaze generously over the salmon, covering tops and edges.
  6. Return the sheet pan to the oven and roast for 10-12 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily, and broccolini is tender-crisp.
  7. Switch the oven to broil on high and broil the salmon for 2-3 minutes until the honey mustard glaze caramelizes and crisps up. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
  8. Remove from oven and let rest for 3 minutes. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley if desired before serving.

Notes

Pat salmon dry before applying glaze to ensure crispiness. Do not overcrowd the sheet pan to allow proper air circulation for crisp edges. If potatoes are not tender after initial roast, give an extra 5 minutes before adding salmon and broccolini. Watch broiling step carefully to avoid burning the glaze. Leftovers keep well for up to 2 days in the fridge; reheat gently in oven or skillet to preserve texture.
