Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon fillet
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon (chopped, optional for garnish) Fresh parsley
• 4 pieces (for serving) Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, and olive oil to create the marinade sauce.

Step 3

Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides, and place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Brush the honey-soy marinade generously over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Reserve about 1 tablespoon of the marinade for basting later.

Step 5

Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Baste the salmon with the reserved marinade halfway through cooking for added flavor.

Step 6

Once done, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 7

Sprinkle the baked salmon with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zing.

Step 8

Enjoy your perfectly baked honey salmon with a side of steamed vegetables or rice for a complete meal!
