Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, soy sauce, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin side down if they have skin.
Brush the olive oil mixture generously over each salmon fillet, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
If desired, switch the oven to broil for the last 2 minutes of cooking to create a slightly crispy top.
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes.
Garnish the salmon with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges for added flavor.
