Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 4 fillets
Course: Dinner
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

For the Salmon
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each) Skin on or off
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
For the Glaze
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce Use low sodium if preferred
  • 2 cloves garlic Minced
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Equipment

  • Oven-safe skillet
  • Small bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the salmon fillets on both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down (if using skin-on) and sear for 3 to 4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
  3. While the salmon sears, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl to make the glaze.
  4. Flip the salmon fillets. Brush half of the honey garlic glaze over the top of the fillets.
  5. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Remove the skillet from the oven. Brush the remaining glaze over the hot salmon immediately before serving.

Notes

For extra crispiness, you can briefly place the salmon under the broiler for the last minute of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning the glaze.
