Why I Love Sheet Pan Meals
Sheet pan dinners are also really convenient for meal prep! Not only are they a total timesaver (AND lifesaver I should add), but you can customize them any way you like. Instead of green beans you could use broccoli or asparagus and even swap the carrots for potatoes or bell peppers. This particular combo just happened to be my favorite to go with this ginger soy mixture and honestly I think you’ll agree!
Ingredients You’ll Need
- salmon – you’ll need about one pound of evenly sized fresh fillets of salmon with the skin on. You can also use frozen fillets, just make sure the salmon is thawed before cooking.
- veggies – I used a combination of fresh green beans and carrots, but feel free to use whatever vegetables you like best.
- olive oil – used to coat the salmon before baking to make the tops of the salmon nice and crisp.
- soy sauce – I always use low-sodium soy sauce as I find that regular soy sauce can make dishes too salty. You could also swap the soy sauce with tamari or coconut aminos to make this gluten-free.
- sweet chili sauce – adds a sweet yet small kick of spice and flavor to the salmon. If you like a lot of heat you could use sriracha, sambal oelek or even add red chili flakes.
- honey – adds a touch of sweetness without using any refined sugar. You could also use maple syrup or other natural sweetener.
- garlic + ginger – fresh garlic and fresh ginger are definitely best in this dish.
- green onions – boost of flavor and fresh taste.
- salt + pepper – needed to season and add flavor to the salmon and veggies.
How to Make Ginger Soy Glazed Salmon
- Prepare salmon and veggies. Place salmon (skin side down), green beans and carrots in a single layer on a sheet pan lined with foil or coated in nonstick spray. Drizzle everything with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Make the sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, honey, ginger, garlic and green onions. Spoon the sauce over the salmon fillets, making sure they are evenly coated.
- Bake in the oven. Place the sheet pan in the oven at 400 degrees F for 10 minutes then pop the broiler on and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, until veggies are tender and salmon is flaky and cooked through.
Sheet Pans I Love to Use!
Also I get a lot of questions about what pans I use for my sheet meals and I’ve found these pans to be fantastic! They are nice and big with extra thickness for durability as well as deep so they can hold a lot of stuff. I also think the price point is super reasonable as well for this quality!
Prepping and Storage
Leftovers will last for 2 to 3 days stored in a sealed, airtight container in the fridge. You can easily reheat this salmon in the oven wrapped in foil at 325 degrees F for about 5 minutes or simply warm it up in the microwave. I also love adding this leftover salmon to a salad for a protein-packed lunch!

I don’t eat seafood. Could you do this with chicken breasts or another kind of meat?
Absolutely! The cooking time would just be different if using chicken.
The salmon was delicious. I cooked carrots, asparagus and baby potatoes along with it. I drizzled a little honey on the carrots to sweeten them up!!😊 The carrots were a little crunchy so I’d probably start cooking the potatoes and carrots while prepping the rest of the food too!! It’s definitely a tasty twist to make salmon and easy directions to follow!!
