Honey Garlic Salmon

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 3 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
• Four 6-oz. salmon fillets, patted dry with a paper towel
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 lemon, sliced into rounds
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, lemon juice and red pepper flakes.

2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat two tablespoons oil. When oil is hot but not smoking, add salmon skin-side up and season with salt and pepper. Cook salmon until deeply golden, about 6 minutes, then flip over and add remaining tablespoon of oil.

3. Add garlic to the skillet and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the honey mixture and sliced lemons and cook until sauce is reduced by about 1/3. Baste salmon with the sauce.

4. Garnish with sliced lemon and parsley and serve.
