New-to-Me Ingredients
I never cook with salmon, so making this recipe was a great way for me to expand my own cooking comfort zone. And I am so glad I did! This salmon bites recipe is seasonal, fresh and so, so easy. It’s definitely going into our week-night meal rotation!
The glaze on the salmon and veggies really makes this meal so incredible. Garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce and honey come together to make it all so flavorful. It also keeps the salmon moist and gives the sprouts and squash a delicious finish.
What is a Sheet Pan Dinner?
A sheet pan meal, or a sheet pan dinner, is an easy, one-pan dinner you make on a sheet pan! It’s one of my favorite ways to prepare dinner for my family without a ton of fuss.
What’s a sheet pan? A sheet pan (you’ll also hear it called a baking pan, baking sheet or sometimes a rimmed cookie sheet, which is why it can be confusing), is usually a rectangular, flat aluminum pan with a rim around it.
A full sheet pan (that’s what I use) measures about 17″x12″. They’re super versatile and no kitchen is complete without one! Note: a cookie sheet can be another pan entirely, because some, unlike a baking sheet, do not have a raised rim.
Can I use parchment on my sheet pan dinner? Short answer: usually. For this recipe, the tortillas need butter in order to get crispy. So you can use foil to keep your pan clean–no parchment–but follow the instructions and butter the foil instead.
In most cases, parchment paper or aluminum foil are great for making clean-up quick! You can use parchment to line your sheet pan unless you’re going to use the broiler. Parchment paper will catch fire under a broiler, so opt for foil in that case.
