how to make honey garlic salmon

Combine garlic, ginger, honey, soy substitute and cayenne pepper in a small bowl and whisk together.

Cut salmon into 4 equal pieces and place in a small dish or plastic zip-top bag. Add sauce and allow to marinate for 15 to 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear two pieces of salmon at a time, face down for 1-2 minutes. Remove from skillet and place skin-side down in a large, lightly greased baking dish.

Repeat the previous step with remaining pieces of salmon. Place baking dish in preheated oven on top rack to bake for 15-20 minutes.

Halfway through the total baking time, baste fish with remaining marinade and return to oven to finish cooking.

While salmon continues to cook, heat remaining marinade over medium-high heat bringing to a boil while stirring continually. Boil until reduced to a sauce of the desired consistency, about 3-5 minutes.

Remove salmon from oven when finished cooking (when the internal temperature is about 145 degrees), drizzle with sauce mixture and enjoy!
