Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets, skin on or off
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • For the Glaze:
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
  2. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Brush the tops of the salmon lightly with olive oil. Season evenly with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  4. Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, onion powder, and minced garlic until fully combined.
  5. Spoon the glaze evenly over the top of each salmon fillet, spreading it to cover the surface.
  6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  7. For extra caramelization, you can briefly broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
  8. Remove from the oven and serve immediately. This dish pairs well with sides often used in meal planning.

Notes

  • For a crispier edge, place the salmon on a wire rack set over the baking sheet before glazing and baking.
  • If you prefer a less sweet glaze, reduce the brown sugar by one teaspoon.
  • This recipe is a great alternative to expensive meal delivery companies when you want a quick, flavorful meal.
