After eating this, I’m never having salmon any other way!

Servings: 4
Ingredients
– 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 1 tablespoon lime juice
– Zest of 1 lime
– 2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley, for garnish
– Lime wedges for serving
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper to taste and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, honey, lime juice, and lime zest.
4. Drizzle the honey lime garlic butter mixture evenly over each salmon fillet.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. If you like a more golden top, broil for the last 2-3 minutes being careful not to let it burn.
6. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley for a pop of color and extra flavor, and serve immediately with lime wedges.
Variations & Tips
– For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dab of sriracha to the butter mixture.
– If fresh limes aren’t available, bottled lime juice will work in a pinch, although fresh is always best for that zesty flavor.
– Meal prep tip: double the sauce recipe and keep it refrigerated. It’s fabulous over chicken or drizzled over roasted veggies!
– Leftovers (if you have any!) are great flaked over a salad or mixed into pasta.
– Eating with your eyes is a thing, so don’t skimp on the parsley garnish – it truly makes a difference. Plus, a little greenery gives that restaurant-quality look right at home.

Remember, the ultimate secret to a stress-less dinner is to have fun with it. This Baked Honey Lime Garlic Butter Salmon is a dish that allows for both comfort and creativity. So pour yourself a glass of white wine, put on your favorite playlist, and enjoy the simplicity and perfection of a meal that nearly makes itself. Happy cooking!
