Baked honey glazed salmon

I made this as a half recipe.  I suggest you double the sauce recipe though because it’s delicious and extra sauce is a good thing!

Check my note at the bottom of recipe for changes.


Good recipe!





  • 4 boneless salmon fillets
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter - melted
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • ½ tsp dried parsley - or 2 tsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • pinch paprika
  • 1 lemon sliced into half-moons

  • Place the salmon fillets, skin-side-down on the baking tray.

  • In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, garlic, honey, parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika.
    2 tbsp unsalted butter, 2 cloves minced garlic, 2 tbsp honey, ½ tsp dried parsley, ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper

    Preheat oven to 400°.

  • Place the salmon fillets, skin-side-down on the baking tray.( I removed the skin)






  • In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, garlic, honey, parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika.
    2 tbsp unsalted butter, 2 cloves minced garlic, 2 tbsp honey, ½ tsp dried parsley, ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper, pinch paprika
  • Pour the mixture over the salmon fillets (don't worry about any of the sauce pooling on the tray).


  • Arrange the lemon wedges on and around the salmon.
    1 lemon sliced into half-moons
  • Place in the oven and bake for 8 minutes.
  • Open the oven and baste the salmon with any of the sauce that has pooled on the tray. Bake for a further 4-7 minutes until the salmon is tender.
  • Serve with your favorite potatoes and green veg.
    I had seasoned acne de Pepe and fresh broccoli.
    ****Note:  I baked the salmon about 10 minutes with half of the glaze.  Then removed from oven and baked another 15.  We like it more on the medium to well done.
