Ingredients
Scale
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets, skin on or off
1 pound broccoli florets
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon harissa paste
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, harissa paste, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create the glaze.
Place the broccoli florets on one side of the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss to coat. Spread them into a single layer.
Place the salmon fillets on the other side of the baking sheet. Brush half of the harissa glaze evenly over the tops of the salmon fillets.
Roast for 10 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven. Brush the remaining glaze over the salmon. Toss the broccoli lightly with tongs.
Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the broccoli is tender-crisp with slightly browned edges.
Serve immediately.
Notes
For moister salmon, do not overcook; check for doneness around the 15-minute mark total cooking time.
If your broccoli florets are very large, cut them into smaller, uniform pieces so they cook at the same rate as the salmon.
You can substitute cauliflower or asparagus for the broccoli if desired.
