Inspired by Marge Perry’s recipe, this is our take on sheet pan cooking 2.0, where everything (yes, even the rice!) is baked on the same pan—no pots or skillets required. A soy vinaigrette adds flavor to the broccoli and salmon during the cooking process and is spiked with sesame and scallions at the end for a delicious sauce to spoon on top.

Ingredients

3 Tbsp.
mirin
2 Tbsp.
soy sauce
1 Tbsp.
rice vinegar
2 tsp.
dark brown sugar
2
large cloves garlic, grated and divided

grated and divided
1 1/2 Tbsp.
grated fresh ginger, divided
1 cup
long-grain white rice, rinsed
Kosher salt
12 oz.
broccoli crowns, trimmed and cut into 1/2-in. pieces
1/2 Tbsp.
olive oil

5-oz skinless salmon fillets
1 Tbsp.
toasted sesame oil
1/2 Tbsp.
toasted sesame seeds
3
scallions, thinly sliced and divided

Directions

1. Step 1Heat oven to 425°F. In bowl, whisk mirin, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and half each of garlic and ginger.
2. Step 2On rimmed baking sheet (make sure it’s level and unwarped for even cooking), stir together rice, 2 1/2 cups water, remaining garlic and ginger and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bake 10 minutes.
3. Step 3Meanwhile, in medium bowl, toss broccoli with olive oil and 1 tablespoon ginger-soy mixture. Stir rice, scatter broccoli on top and bake 6 minutes.
4. Step 4Nestle salmon amid rice. Spoon 1 tablespoon of remaining ginger-soy mixture over each piece and bake until salmon is opaque throughout, 8 to 11 minutes.
5. Step 5Meanwhile, into remaining ginger-soy mixture, stir sesame oil and sesame seeds, then half of scallions. Serve salmon and broccoli rice drizzled with scallion-soy vinaigrette and sprinkled with remaining scallions.

RINSE YOUR RICE

Running cold water over a bowl of long-grain rice until the water is clear removes extra starch, which will keep grains from clumping and create more tender rice.
