Instructions

Whisk the flour and salmon seasonings together in a shallow dish. Dredge the salmon in the mixture, shake off excess and transfer to a dry surface.
Heat the vegetable oil a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, medium if your stove runs hot. Add the salmon and cook for 3 minutes. Turn the salmon over and cook another 2 minutes.
Add the butter and the honey garlic sauce to the middle of the pan and simmer for 1 minute while basting the fish with the sauce. Turn the fillets over one last time (to fully caramelize the other side) and finish cooking salmon to desired doneness, 1-2 minutes (until it easily flakes with a fork, 125-135 degrees F). If the sauce thickens too much before your salmon is done cooking, just add water 1 Tbsp at a time.
Garnish salmon with parsley, cilantro or green onions and serve with rice or potatoes and veggies.

Notes

To Store: Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can enjoy the honey glazed salmon warm or cold in salads, rice bowls, sandwiches, wraps etc.
To freeze: Place salmon fillets in a freezer size bag along with the glaze, squeeze out excess air to prevent freezer burn, label and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw salmon in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
To reheat: Gently reheat the honey glazed salmon in a nonstick skillet, covered, for about 5 minutes or in the microwave at 30-second intervals. You can also warm in the oven for 10-15 minutes at 275 degrees F, until it reaches an internal temperature of 125°F to 130°F. Take care not to overcook the salmon or it will become dry.
