Roasted Honey-Dijon Salmon with Spring Vegetables

 

Here’s a entire guide for making Roasted Honey-Dijon Salmon with Spring Vegetables—a clean, vibrant, and healthful meal best for a light lunch or dinner.

Ingredients (Serves 2–three)

For the Salmon:

2–three salmon fillets (skin-on or skinless, approximately 6 ounces / a hundred and seventy g each)

2 tbsp Dijon mustard

1½ tbsp honey

1 tsp olive oil

1 clove garlic, minced

Optional: a squeeze of lemon juice

For the Spring Vegetables:

1 cup asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch portions

1 cup baby carrots, halved lengthwise if massive

1 cup snap peas, trimmed

1–2 tbsp olive oil

Salt & pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to four hundred°F (2 hundred°C).

2. Prepare the Honey-Dijon Glaze:

In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

3. Coat the Salmon:

Brush the honey-Dijon glaze calmly over every fillet.

4. Prepare the Vegetables:

In a blending bowl, toss the asparagus, carrots, and snap peas with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them around the salmon at the baking sheet.

5. Roast Everything:

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 12–15 mins, or until the salmon is cooked via (flakes easily with a fork) and veggies are smooth-crisp.

 6. Optional Broil for Finish:

For a gently caramelized top, broil for 1–2 mins at the end—watch carefully to avoid burning.

7. Serve:

Transfer salmon and greens to plates. Garnish with fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon juice if favored.

Tips:

Salmon doneness: Aim for an internal temperature of a hundred twenty five–one hundred thirty°F (51–54°C) for medium-rare, or 140°F (60°C) for well-completed.

Veggie variations: You can also use zucchini, infant potatoes, or cherry tomatoes for extra coloration.

Make it meal-prep friendly: Roast extra greens and save within the refrigerator—they live true for two–three days.

This dish balances the wonder of honey with the tang of Dijon mustard and pairs flawlessly with tender spring veggies for a vivid, sparkling flavor. 🌱🐟
