Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 4 Salmon fillets (6-ounce portions), skin-on or skinless
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp Salt (or to taste)
  • 0.25 tsp Freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)

For the Honey-Soy Glaze

  • 0.25 cup Soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tsp Ginger, grated fresh (or 1/2 tsp ground ginger)
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  • Pat salmon fillets dry, then place them skin-side down on the baking sheet and season with salt and pepper.

Glaze and Bake

  • In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the glaze.
  • Generously brush the honey-soy glaze over each salmon fillet.
  • Bake for 12-18 minutes in the preheated oven until the salmon flakes easily and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Serving

  • Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for one to two minutes before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in the glaze for 15-30 minutes before baking. Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of your salmon. Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or rice.
