Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Finely mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
In a small bowl, squeeze the juice of the lemon and combine it with the minced garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, and sugar-free maple syrup. Whisk to mix well.
Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Season them with salt and black pepper evenly on both sides.
Pour the lemon-garlic mixture over the salmon fillets, making sure each piece is coated well.
Sprinkle the crushed red pepper flakes over the salmon for a bit of heat, if desired.
Top each salmon fillet with a dab of butter to ensure a rich, buttery flavor during baking.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flaky.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the salmon rest for 2 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Keto Honey Glazed Salmon!
