Get ready to add a new champion to your weeknight dinner rotation. This Sheet Pan Hot Honey Harissa Salmon is one of those magical meals that looks and tastes incredibly gourmet, but comes together on one pan with minimal effort. It’s all about big, bold flavors and a seriously amazing technique for the best broccoli of your life. The secret to a perfect one-pan meal is using a high-quality sheet pan. I use this heavy-duty half-sheet pan because it roasts everything evenly and doesn’t warp under the high heat. It’s a total workhorse in my kitchen.

Our secret weapon here is the “deep roast.” We’re blasting the broccoli in a hot oven until it becomes unbelievably sweet, tender-crisp, and gets those irresistible crispy, charred edges. Then, we add beautiful salmon fillets and coat everything in a sweet, spicy, smoky hot honey harissa glaze. The secret to this easy sheet pan dinner is the spicy-sweet glaze, which combines fiery harissa with our simple 5-Minute Homemade Hot Honey. The result is a complete, healthy-ish meal that is an absolute explosion of flavor and texture.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

One-Pan Simplicity: A complete, balanced meal with protein and veggies, all cooked on a single sheet pan. Cleanup is a dream.
Game-Changing Broccoli: The “deep roast” technique will make you fall in love with broccoli all over again. Those crispy, charred bits are pure magic.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Let’s make a weeknight masterpiece. Here’s how easy it is.

First, let’s gather our beautiful, simple ingredients.

Next, we’ll make our quick hot honey harissa glaze. This is the flavor bomb that brings the whole dish together. Just whisk a few simple ingredients in a bowl!

Now, give the broccoli a head start. We’ll toss the broccoli with some olive oil and get it into the hot oven first. This is the key to achieving that perfect, deep roast and getting those crispy edges.

Finally, add the salmon and glaze everything. After the broccoli has had its head start, push it to one side of the pan, add your salmon, and brush that gorgeous glaze all over everything. Pop it back in the oven for a few minutes to finish cooking. A final “sprinkle” of fresh herbs and lemon zest, and dinner is served!

Ava’s Notes

What is Harissa? Harissa is a North African chili paste that’s smoky, spicy, and incredibly flavorful. You can find it in most grocery stores in the international aisle. Spice levels vary, so start with a little and add more if you like it hot!
Don’t Overcook the Salmon: The key to perfectly flaky salmon is to cook it until it’s just opaque in the center. It will continue to cook a bit on the hot pan after you take it out of the oven.
The Zesty Sprinkle: Don’t skip the final sprinkle of fresh lemon zest! It adds a burst of bright, fresh aroma that cuts through the richness and makes all the flavors pop.
