Ingredients

• 4 pieces salmon fillets
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 pound green beans
• 1 whole lemon
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic to create the glaze.

Step 3

Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet and brush them generously with the glaze. Reserve a small amount for later.

Step 4

Trim the ends off the green beans and toss them in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, juice from half the lemon, salt, and pepper until well coated.

Step 5

Arrange the green beans around the salmon fillets on the baking sheet, making sure to spread them out evenly.

Step 6

Bake the salmon and green beans in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Stir the green beans halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 7

While the salmon is baking, heat a small skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toast the sesame seeds, if using, for about 1-2 minutes until slightly golden and fragrant.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle the reserved glaze over the salmon fillets and garnish with toasted sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 9

Cut the remaining half of the lemon into wedges and serve alongside the salmon and green beans for an extra burst of freshness.

Step 10

Plate the glazed salmon and green beans, and enjoy your healthy, delicious meal!
