Lemon Honey Baked Salmon is an effortless weeknight or dinner party dish! The sweet marinade pairs beautifully with garlic and zesty lemon, all while being quick and easy to cook in the oven – an all-around win-win dish!
Use a large enough baking pan for the fillets, and preheat your oven to 400degF. Pat the salmon filets dry before seasoning generously on both the skin side and meat side with salt and pepper to help them brown evenly in the oven.
Bake the salmon until its skin is crisp and the inside opaque – approximately six to eight minutes per inch of thickness. While that happens, pour your marinade into a saucepan and simmer it over medium high heat until half of its liquid has been reduced before brushing over your salmon before serving.
