Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 6-ounce pieces Salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Sugar-free honey substitute (such as monk fruit honey)
- 3 tablespoons Low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Lightly season the tops of the fillets with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar-free honey substitute, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and olive oil to create the glaze.
Brush a generous amount of the glaze over each salmon fillet, reserving some glaze for later.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Halfway through the cooking time, brush the salmon with the remaining glaze to ensure a beautiful, caramelized crust.
Once cooked, remove the salmon from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve the honey-glazed salmon warm, paired with your choice of vegetables or a fresh salad.
