Ingredients
- 4 pieces (about 6 oz each) fresh salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, fresh lemon juice, low sodium soy sauce, and olive oil until well combined.
Step 3
Add minced garlic, ground black pepper, chopped rosemary, and lemon zest to the honey mixture and stir until incorporated.
Step 4
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Generously brush the honey glaze over each fillet, making sure they are well coated.
Step 5
Allow the salmon to marinate with the glaze for about 5 minutes at room temperature.
Step 6
Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 7
For an optional finishing touch, switch the oven to broil during the last minute of cooking to caramelize the glaze slightly, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the salmon rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the salmon hot, garnished with extra rosemary or lemon slices for a fresh presentation if desired.
