Ingredients

Scale

Salmon Fillets

  • 4 (6 oz) fresh salmon fillets

Marinade

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, combine honey, pineapple juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, and lime juice. Whisk them together until well blended to create a delicious marinade.
  2. Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the fish.
  3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C), ensuring that it’s ready for a quick and efficient cooking process.
  4. Bake the Salmon: Transfer the marinated salmon fillets to a baking dish, skin-side down. Pour any remaining marinade over the top and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh salmon and real honey make a significant difference in flavor.
  • Don’t Overcook: Keep an eye on the salmon to prevent it from drying out; it should be moist and flaky.
  • Rest Before Serving: Let the salmon rest for a few minutes after baking to allow the juices to redistribute.
  • Garnish Creatively: A sprinkle of sesame seeds or chopped green onions adds a lovely finishing touch.
  • Experiment with Cooking Methods: Feel free to grill or pan-sear the salmon for different textures.
