One Pan Baked Teriyaki Salmon and Vegetables
Description
One Pan Baked Teriyaki Salmon and Vegetables combines tender salmon fillets with crisp-tender vegetables including bell peppers, onions, carrots, and broccoli. The homemade teriyaki sauce, made by simmering water, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, and honey, thickened with cornstarch, provides a glossy coating that caramelizes slightly as it bakes. The salmon becomes flaky and moist, absorbing the sauce's balance of sweetness and umami.
The vegetables roast around the salmon, allowing for varied textures from tender carrots to slightly crisp broccoli. Baking at 400 degrees Fahrenheit ensures the salmon cooks through in 15–20 minutes while the veggies soften without overcooking. Serving the dish with steamed white rice complements the flavors and provides a filling meal.
Vegetables can be swapped to personal preference, such as cauliflower or zucchini, adapting the recipe as desired. Using a plastic splatter guard when reheating helps maintain moisture and prevents drying out. This dish offers an integrated meal with minimal cleanup.
