Crispy Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon

A quick and easy recipe for crispy salmon fillets glazed with a delicious honey garlic sauce, perfect for weeknight dinners or impressing guests.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (skin-on)
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Chopped green onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients. Ensure the salmon fillets are thawed if frozen, mince the garlic, and set everything within reach.
  2. Make the Honey Garlic Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Mix well to form a glaze.
  3. Sear the Salmon: Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillets skin-side down and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
  4. Glaze and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the salmon and pour the honey garlic glaze over the top. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
  5. Serve and Garnish: Plate the salmon and drizzle remaining glaze on top. Garnish with chopped green onions.

Notes

Use fresh garlic and good quality honey for best flavor. Be sure not to overcook the salmon to maintain moisture. For a spicy variation, add red pepper flakes to the glaze.
