Deliciously Healthy Honey-Glazed Ginger Garlic Salmon

Ingredients:

• 4 salmon fillets
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Marinade:

   • In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, gluten-free soy sauce or tamari, lemon juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger.

2. Marinate the Salmon:

   • Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
   • Pour the marinade over the salmon, making sure each fillet is well coated.
   • Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

3. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

4. Cook the Salmon:

   • Heat the olive oil or avocado oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
   • Remove the salmon from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later.
   • Sear the salmon fillets in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown.
   • Pour the reserved marinade over the salmon fillets.

5. Bake the Salmon:

   • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

6. Serve:

   • Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
   • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Tips:

• Serve the salmon with steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
• For a bit of extra flavor, you can add a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top before baking.
