- 4 salmon fillets 6 ounces each, skin on
- ¼ cup honey
- 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, ¼ teaspoon adds mild heat
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with a sheet of parchment paper (or foil) for easy clean up.
Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the honey, soy sauce, butter, garlic and red pepper flakes. Heat over medium heat, stirring often, until bubbly, then continue cooking, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes, until slightly thickened. (The sauce will thicken up more as it rests.) Remove pan from the heat. Reserve about 3 tablespoons of the glaze in a small bowl for serving.
Place salmon, skin side down, in the prepared baking dish. Pat dry with paper towels. Brush a thin layer of the glaze over the tops of the salmon fillets.
Bake salmon for 10 minutes. Then brush with more of the glaze from the pan. Continue baking for 2-8 more minutes, or until salmon is cooked through to 145°F, brushing with more glaze every few minutes. The cook time will depend on the thickness of the salmon fillets. Discard any extra glaze left in the pan.
Serve salmon with the glaze that you reserved in the small bowl.
