• 1 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed
• 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1 (8 ounce) salmon fillet

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and brush with olive oil.

Step 2

Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add asparagus, cover, and steam until slightly tender, 2 to 4 minutes.

Step 3

Whisk soy sauce and honey together in a bowl until glaze is smooth.

Step 4

Place salmon fillet and asparagus on the prepared baking sheet; season with salt and pepper.

Step 5

Broil in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Drizzle 2/3 of the glaze over salmon and asparagus. Broil until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 5 minutes. Drizzle remaining glaze over salmon.
