  • Bring chicken broth and butter to a boil in a saucepan. Add rinsed brown rice and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes. When finished, remove from the heat, cover, and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • When the rice has about 30 minutes left, combine green beans, sweet potato, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl; toss to combine. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, separating green beans on one side and sweet potatoes on the other.
  • Combine honey, chipotle pepper, and garlic in a bowl; season to taste with salt and pepper. Brush mixture onto frozen salmon and place on top of the green beans, skin-side down (this step is important.)
  • Roast in the preheated oven until vegetables are soft and salmon flakes easily with a fork, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven. Divide rice between 2 bowls. Top each bowl with vegetables and a salmon fillet. Sprinkle toasted pecans over top.
