Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- Fresh cilantro, chopped
- Lime wedges
Instructions
- Preheat Your Cooking Spot: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or grill to medium-high heat.
- Prepare Your Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together lime juice, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and olive oil until well combined.
- Marinate the Salmon: Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over them. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Cook That Gorgeous Fish: If baking, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place salmon skin-side down. Bake for about 12-15 minutes until cooked through and flaky. If grilling, place salmon directly on the grill and cook for about six minutes per side.
- Glaze It Up: In the last few minutes of cooking, brush reserved marinade over each fillet for a shiny finish.
- Serve with Style: Transfer salmon to plates, drizzle with remaining glaze, sprinkle with cilantro, and garnish with lime wedges.
