Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-ounce each) salmon fillets
- 0.5 cup peach preserves
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- 1 peach, thinly sliced peach slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Pat them dry with a paper towel and sprinkle them evenly with salt and pepper.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the peach preserves, honey, olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, and ground ginger. Stir the mixture frequently until everything is melted and well combined, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Generously brush the prepared glaze over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
If desired, turn on the broiler for the final 1-2 minutes of cooking to caramelize the glaze slightly for extra flavor and presentation.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and fresh peach slices, if desired, before serving.
Serve the Peach Honey Baked Salmon warm with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh green salad.
