Ingredients
  

_For the Honey Garlic Salmon:_

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1/4 cup honey

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and black pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

_For the Roasted Broccoli:_

1 lb fresh broccoli florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Juice of half a lemon

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Broccoli: In a large bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper until well-coated. Spread the broccoli out on a baking sheet in a single layer.

      Roast the Broccoli: Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred on the edges, tossing halfway through for even cooking.

        Make the Honey Garlic Sauce: While the broccoli is roasting, prepare the honey garlic sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and olive oil until well combined.

          Sear the Salmon: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Once the skillet is hot, add the salmon skin-side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes without moving them, allowing the skin to crisp up.

            Add the Glaze: Carefully flip the salmon fillets and pour the honey garlic sauce over them. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, spooning the sauce over the salmon as it cooks. When the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, remove from heat.

              Finish the Broccoli: Once the broccoli is done roasting, remove it from the oven and squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the top.

                Serve: Plate the roasted broccoli alongside the salmon fillets, drizzling any remaining honey garlic sauce from the skillet over the salmon. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped parsley for a vibrant finish.
