Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon fillets
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the glaze.
Step 3
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Spoon the glaze evenly over the top of each fillet, making sure they're well-coated.
Step 4
Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in the center. Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of the fillets.
Step 5
Once done, remove the salmon from the oven and sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions evenly over the top of each fillet.
Step 6
Serve the glazed salmon hot with steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh side salad for a complete meal.
