Introduction

This Baked Asian Salmon with Veggies is a quick, flavorful meal that combines tender salmon with vibrant broccoli and bell peppers. The soy-ginger marinade adds a delicious Asian-inspired touch, making it perfect for a healthy weeknight dinner.

A white plate holds a cooked salmon fillet topped with black sesame seeds and small green parsley leaves; the salmon is golden-brown with a slightly crispy texture. To the left of the salmon, there is a small pile of roasted broccoli florets with charred edges, showing a mix of dark green and brown colors. Above the broccoli, there are four roasted mini bell peppers in red and orange shades with slight charring, garnished with small parsley leaves. A silver fork at the bottom right of the plate holds a small piece of the salmon. The plate rests on a white marbled surface, with two halved limes, a bunch of cilantro, two glasses filled with a red drink, and a beige textured cloth placed around it.

Ingredients

1 pound Skin-On Salmon Fillet
2 cups Broccoli Florets
4 Bell Peppers
4 tablespoons Soy Sauce
2 teaspoons Sesame Oil
3 cloves Garlic
1 tablespoon Fresh Ginger
1/2 Lime
1 teaspoon Sesame Seeds
1 tablespoon Fresh Cilantro

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Pat the skin-on salmon fillet dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Step 3: In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated fresh ginger, and the juice of half a lime.
Step 4: Using a pastry brush, coat the salmon, broccoli florets, and sliced bell peppers evenly with the sauce mixture.
Step 5: Arrange the salmon and vegetables on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 6: Remove from the oven, spoon any remaining sauce over the salmon and veggies, then garnish with fresh cilantro and sesame seeds before serving.

Tips & Variations

Try adding sliced mushrooms or snap peas for extra texture and flavor.
Swap fresh ginger for ground ginger if fresh isn’t available, using 1/2 teaspoon instead.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
For a low-sodium option, use low-sodium soy sauce.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm gently in the oven at 300 degrees F until heated through, or microwave in short bursts to avoid drying out the salmon.
