Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon

Wash the salmon fillets under cold running water, then pat dry them with kitchen paper.

Use tweezers to remove any bones from the salmon fillets.

Place the salmon fillets on a plate and season with salt, pepper and paprika. Leave them to absorb the flavours for a few minutes.

Meanwhile, put the butter and oil in a non-stick pan. Melt the butter and then add the sliced ​​garlic.

Add the soy sauce, honey and lemon juice. Cook the sauce for a few seconds to mix all the ingredients well.

Add the salmon fillets to the pan with the skin in contact with the pan and cook the salmon for about 5 minutes, spooning the sauce over the fillets.

When cooked, place the salmon fillets on the plate with their sauce and sprinkle with chopped chives and sesame seeds to taste.

Recipe Variations

You can also buy skinless salmon fillets, but be careful with the pan temperature so as not to break up the fillets during cooking. To give a further note of freshness, grate lemon zest over the cooked salmon and add chopped parsley or coriander.

To cook honey salmon in the oven, all you have to do is add all the ingredients to a baking dish and cook at 170 °C for 10-15 minutes. If you don't like garlic, add whole cloves to the pan and remove after cooking. For a less tight sauce you can add a few tablespoons of water while cooking.
