Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated garlic
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
- 4 pieces lemon wedges (optional for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven's broiler and position a rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease it with nonstick spray or a thin coat of olive oil.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic, ginger, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Pat them dry with paper towels.
Brush the glaze generously over each salmon fillet, spreading it evenly to coat the tops and sides.
Broil the salmon for 6–8 minutes, or until the tops are caramelized and the salmon is just cooked through. Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part; it should flake easily, but still be moist.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes.
Garnish the salmon with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an added burst of flavor.
