Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces salmon fillets (boneless and skinless)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 each lemon (juiced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • to taste Salt and pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.
Cooking
  1. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown and halfway cooked.
  2. Flip the salmon and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through and crispy.
  3. Reduce heat and add minced garlic; cook for 30 seconds.
  4. Stir in honey and lemon juice; let it bubble and thicken for about 2 minutes.
  5. Spoon the glaze over the salmon and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and serve immediately, drizzling any remaining glaze over the top and squeezing fresh lemon for extra flavor.

Notes

Serve with a side of steamed veggies or a crunchy salad to add freshness. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
