Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine salted butter (or olive oil), soy sauce (or Tamari), honey, and minced garlic. Whisk over medium-high heat until smooth and simmer for about 3 minutes until thickened.
  3. Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Season each fillet with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  4. Pour the warm glaze over the salmon fillets, ensuring each piece is coated evenly.
  5. Bake the salmon for about 12 minutes until opaque and it flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Let the salmon rest for a minute, then drizzle with remaining glaze and serve hot with steamed veggies, rice, or salad.
