Honey Lime Salmon
Description
Honey Lime Salmon combines fresh salmon seasoned simply with salt and black pepper before being cooked in a skillet to brown the surface and infused with a sauce composed of honey, soy sauce, and lime juice. This method creates a glaze that caramelizes and penetrates the fish as it finishes cooking in the oven, enhancing the flavor and adding a touch of sweetness and acidity. Cooking at 375°F ensures the salmon is cooked evenly without drying out.
The resulting salmon offers a firm yet tender texture, complemented by the glossy honey lime glaze that balances sweet and citrus notes. The chopped parsley garnish adds a subtle herbal freshness while lime wedges provide extra tang at serving.
It is best served immediately after roasting to enjoy the full contrast between the warm, sauced fillets and the fresh garnishes. This recipe suits a straightforward dinner and pairs well with simple sides like rice, vegetables, or salad.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (500g) salmon
- salt
- black pepper ground
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- lime wedges
- parsley chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Season the salmon with salt and black pepper. In a bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, and lime juice, stirring to combine well.
- Heat a skillet with the olive oil. When it's hot, add the salmon and cook for a couple of minutes. Pour the honey mixture into the skillet, spooning the honey lime sauce over the salmon.
- Finish by roasting the salmon in the oven for 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
