Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by lining it with foil.
Season the salmon fillets on both sides with salt and ground black pepper.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the sugar-free honey substitute, soy sauce, lemon juice, and water. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 2-3 minutes or until slightly thickened.
In a large oven-proof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin-side down, and sear until the skin is crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
Pour the honey garlic glaze over the salmon fillets while they are in the skillet.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven, baking the salmon for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the salmon is fully cooked and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a minute. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped fresh parsley over the top before serving.
Serve the keto honey garlic glazed salmon hot with your choice of keto-friendly sides.
