This fresh and light honey and garlic glazed salmon comes together in less than half an hour! Keep it fresh with some new potatoes and some stir fried greens!
What you'll need
- 4 (170 g each) salmon fillets, patted dry with a paper towel
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 lemon, sliced into rounds
- 40 g honey
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 30 ml soy sauce
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- Kosher salt, to taste
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Method
- Whisk together 2 tablespoons lemon juice, honey, 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, and soy sauce in a medium bowl.
- Preheat 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet. Once hot, add in salmon in a way that skin-side remains up and season with pepper and salt, to taste. Cook each side for about 6 minutes, until deeply golden. Add remaining oil, if needed.
- Sauté garlic in a skillet for just a minute, then add in sliced lemons and honey mixture. Stir and cook for few minutes, until sauce is reduced by third.
- Baste fillets with honey-garlic sauce and garnish with lemon slices. Serve and enjoy!
Notes: you can also bake salmon in the oven for about 12-15 minutes, basting it with the sauce from time to time. It is a great high protein dish perfect for protein diets.
