Instructions
Creating Crispy Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preparation: Begin by patting the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
2. Make the Glaze: In a medium bowl, combine honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and olive oil. Whisk until thoroughly mixed.
3. Preheat the Pan: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a tablespoon of olive oil.
4. Sear the Salmon: Carefully place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin-side down. Let them cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
5. Flip and Glaze: Gently flip the fillets and pour the honey garlic mixture over the top. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, spooning the glaze over the salmon as it cooks.
6. Check for Doneness: The salmon is ready when it flakes easily with a fork, and its internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
7. Remove from Heat: Once fully cooked, remove the skillet from heat and let the salmon rest for a couple of minutes.
8. Serve Hot: Garnish with lemon wedges and extra glaze if desired.
