The inspiration for this honey-lime glazed salmon was the lonely lime sitting in my refrigerator! I had picked up some wild-caught coho salmon fillets at the store, but didn’t know how I was going to prepare it until I saw that lime.
This salmon is super easy to make and doesn’t involve a lot of ingredients either. It’s fresh, zesty, buttery, and a tad sweet. It’s delish!
We enjoyed eating our fillets with a side of warm seasoned zucchini noodles, but it would pair well with pretty much any veggie.
Honey-Lime Glazed Salmon
Ingredients:
- 2 fresh wild salmon fillets
- 1-2 Tbsp raw honey
- 1-2 Tbsp melted grass-fed butter
- 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
- Sea salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a 9×9 pan with foil or parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, lime juice, sea salt and pepper.
- Place fish fillets skin side down in the pan. Sprinkle with a little sea salt and pepper.
- Spoon glaze over the fillets, covering completely.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes or until fish is cooked through.
Serve with vegetable of your choosing. We ate our fish with warm zucchini noodles drizzled with sea salt and avocado oil. It’d be great served over a bed of steamed or sautéed kale as well.
I stink/suck at making salmon. I love zuccihini noodles … got some in the drawer of the fridge that I think I am gonna stirfry with the rest of my butternut squash! yeah … yeah … yeah!
Haha, I’ve had my share of bad experiences cooking salmon/fish too. I always pray that it’ll turn out well, but it’s never a guarantee!
I’ve never attempted to make salmon, I keep thinking I’ll mess it up big time! This recipe makes it look so good though 🙂 I’ll have to give it a try I think 🙂
