Girl, let me tell you about this absolutely divine dinner recipe that’s been passed down in my family for generations – our famous Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon with Roasted Vegetables. It’s the kind of meal that’ll make your family think you secretly enrolled in culinary school! 😉
Listen, I know we’re all busy trying to juggle work, life, and everything in between, but trust me, this recipe is totally worth the effort. Plus, it’s actually super easy (don’t tell anyone I said that, let them think you slaved away in the kitchen all day!).
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 4 salmon fillets
– 4 tablespoons honey
– 6 cloves of garlic (yes, really!)
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 lemon
– Assorted vegetables (I use Brussels sprouts, carrots, and sweet potatoes)
– Olive oil
– Salt and pepper
– Fresh herbs (rosemary and thyme are my go-to)
Okay, honey, let’s get cooking! First things first, preheat that oven to 400°F. While it’s heating up, mince your garlic (and maybe save a clove for keeping vampires away 😂).
In a bowl, mix honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and the juice of half a lemon. This glaze is seriously to die for – I may or may not have licked the spoon once or twice!
Cut up your veggies into similar-sized pieces (nobody likes unevenly cooked vegetables, am I right?). Toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, and those fresh herbs.

Now, arrange those vegetables on a baking sheet and pop them in the oven for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, season your salmon fillets with salt and pepper. After the veggies have had their head start, push them to the sides of the pan and place the salmon in the middle.
Drizzle that gorgeous glaze all over the salmon (seriously, it’s like liquid gold!). Back in the oven it goes for another 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Pro tip: If you want that glaze to get extra sticky and caramelized, turn on the broiler for the last minute – but watch it like a hawk! Nobody likes burnt salmon, trust me, I learned that lesson the hard way! 🙈
The end result? A perfectly cooked, slightly sweet, totally savory dinner that’ll have everyone begging for seconds. The vegetables come out perfectly caramelized, and that salmon? Heaven on a plate!
Y’all, I can’t even tell you how many times this recipe has saved my dinner parties! It’s fancy enough for company but easy enough for a Wednesday night when you’re feeling fancy.
