Honey Garlic Salmon Skillet

Dinner

This delicious, one-pan meal brings tender salmon, hearty brown rice and crisp broccoli together with a sweet and savory glaze. After a quick sear on the stovetop, the salmon is transferred to the oven, where everything finishes cooking together. Be sure that your salmon fillets are the correct thickness so they finish cooking with the other ingredients.

Ingredients

1½ tablespoons honey
6 medium cloves garlic, grated (about 2½ teaspoons), divided
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 (5-ounce) skinless salmon fillets (1 inch thick), patted dry
4 cups broccoli florets, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped (about 1 cup)
3 large scallions, sliced (about ¾ cup), plus more for garnish
1 medium carrot, peeled and sliced (about ⅔ cup)
¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper
½ teaspoon salt, divided
2½ tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 (8.8-ounce) package microwaveable brown rice
¼ cup unsalted chicken broth

Description

Preheat oven to 400°F. Stir 1½ tablespoons honey and the grated garlic together in a small bowl until well combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brush tops of 4 salmon fillets with 1½ teaspoons honey mixture; reserve the remaining 1½ tablespoons honey mixture. Place the salmon in the hot skillet, honey-side down; cook, undisturbed, until deeply browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate, browned-side up; do not wipe the pan clean.
Add 4 cups broccoli, chopped bell pepper, sliced scallions, sliced carrot, ¼ teaspoon pepper, ¼ teaspoon salt and the remaining 1 teaspoon garlic to the skillet; cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in 2½ tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon vinegar and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Stir in 1 package rice and ¼ cup broth.
Transfer to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the broccoli is almost tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven; brush the top and sides of the salmon evenly with the reserved honey mixture and sprinkle with the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Nestle the salmon into the broccoli mixture, browned-side up. Bake, uncovered, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest portion of salmon registers 120°F, 6 to 8 minutes. Garnish with scallions, if desired.
