Salmon, broccoli, snow peas, carrots and bell peppers coated with teriyaki sauce and oven roasted to perfection. This quick and easy sheet pan dinner comes easily and makes a healthy low-carb dinner or meal prep in under 30 minutes!
Salmon is one of our favorite types of fish. It’s always moist, flaky and full of flavor. That’s assuming you cook it right of course. I’ve had very dry salmon in expensive restaurants more time than I can count. I don’t think I can recall a time I had a nice moist and perfectly cooked piece of salmon at a restaurant. I’ve given up on eating salmon outside and stuck to cooking it at home instead.
This homemade teriyaki salmon is the perfect way to have healthy delicious take-out at home without making a mess. Everything is baked in one pan making it much easier to get dinner on the table fast.
It all begins with a well-balanced teriyaki sauce. You can use a store-bought teriyaki sauce or use my simple sauce is incredibly delicious and requires just a few ingredients you probably already have on hand.
The salmon should be marinated in the sauce for at least 15 minutes to 1 hour but that’s assuming you are not trying to cook the salmon now. If you have time, go ahead and marinate the salmon in a ziplock bag overnight for more flavor.
Once the salmon is done marinating. Place it on a baking sheet along with thinly sliced carrots, snap or snow peas, bell peppers, and broccoli. Coat the veggies and salmon with a few teaspoons of the remaining that’s left in the ziplock bag and pop in the oven for 16-20 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through.
Simmer the remaining sauce (left from marinade) in a small sauce pan until it begins to bubble. Drizzle the thick sauce on the salmon after removing from oven and serve with rice, noodles or eat with a fork if you are on a low-carb diet!

Cooked this several times now. Absolutely yummy. Switched the veg each time, used sugar snap peas and tenderstem broccoil with carrots, it worked well too.
This is a hit with all 8 of us at our house!! So easy to make ahead on days that I work and just toss in the oven when I get home. Definitely added to our rotation. Thanks!!

Yay! so happy to hear the family enjoyed the dish!!
This is one of our new favorite dishes. Easy to make and a great way to get in extra veggies.
how many calories this is?
why did you give this recipe 3 stars? Did you make it? Did it taste bad?
I made this dish several times and it’s delicious and deserves 5 stars. Lacking calorie count is not a reason to discredit a recipe.
This would depend on how much you prepared and what kind of sauce. It’s easy to find the information on your original packaging or you can look them up on the internet.
I imported it into My FItness Pal and they say 357.
