This Honey Garlic Baked Salmon features tender, flaky fish glazed in a sweet and savory marinade, bringing a burst of flavor to your dining table with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (approximately 6 oz each)
  • 1⁄4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley for garnish
  • Lemon slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. In a small bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, and ground black pepper to create the marinade.

3. Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish or a lined baking sheet. Make sure they are arranged in a single layer.

4. Pour the marinade over the salmon fillets, making sure they are evenly coated. Allow them to marinate for about 15-20 minutes to let the flavors seep into the fish.

5. Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon fillets and cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.

6. Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

7. After 15 minutes, remove the foil and switch the oven to broil. Broil the salmon for an additional 3-5 minutes or until the tops are slightly caramelized and golden.

8. Carefully remove the baking dish from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.

9. Garnish the salmon fillets with fresh parsley and optional lemon slices before serving.

10. Serve the Honey Garlic Baked Salmon warm, straight from the oven.

Notes

For a more intense flavor, marinate the salmon for up to an hour in the refrigerator.

This recipe pairs well with steamed vegetables or a side of rice.

Always ensure the salmon is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 145°F (62.8°C).

The dish is perfect for both a quick family dinner and an elegant gathering.

Honey Garlic Baked Salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
