HONEY-GLAZED BAKED SALMON

Honey-Glazed Baked Salmon image

I got this recipe from a friend and, as a new cook, it is easy to make and delicious to boot! Even when I make this recipe with fewer pieces of salmon (2 small salmon filets), I still make the same amount of honey glaze, because it is so delicious and I prefer having more sauce rather than not enough.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

⅓ cup honey
⅓ cup thinly sliced green onions
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced onion
¾ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or more to taste
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste
4 salmon fillets

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix honey, green onions, soy sauce, sesame seeds, garlic, onion, ginger, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl until blended.
Place salmon in single layer in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Spoon honey mixture evenly on top of salmon; the mixture will run off, but try to coat the fish with a thin layer all over.
Roast salmon in the preheated oven, basting salmon with the sauce at least once, until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.
