Ingredients
4 wild caught salmon fillets
Salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons butter
4 cloves garlic
4 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
Lemon wedges
Directions
Arrange oven shelf to the middle of your oven. Preheat oven to broil/grill settings on medium heat. Season salmon with salt, pepper and paprika. Set aside. Heat the butter in a skillet or pan over medium-high heat until melted. Add the garlic and sauté for about a minute, until fragrant. Pour in the honey, water and soy sauce; allow the flavours to heat through and combine. Add in the lemon juice; stir well to combine all of the flavours together. Add the salmon steaks to the sauce in the pan; cook each fillet for 3-4 minutes or until golden, while basting the tops with the pan juices. Season with salt and pepper, to taste . Optional -- Add the lemon wedges around the salmon . Baste salmon one more time then transfer the pan to your oven to broil / grill for a further 5-6 minutes, or until the tops of the salmon are nicely charred, and the salmon is cooked to your liking. To serve, drizzle with the sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with steamed vegetables; over rice or with a salad.
