Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets, skin on or off
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels. This step helps you achieve a better texture. Place the fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Rub this seasoning mix evenly over the top and sides of the salmon fillets.
  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, brown sugar, minced garlic, and lemon juice to create the glaze.
  5. Brush about half of the glaze mixture generously over the seasoned salmon fillets.
  6. Bake the salmon for 10 minutes.
  7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and brush the remaining glaze over the fillets.
  8. Return the salmon to the oven and bake for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  9. Remove from the oven, let it rest for 2 minutes, and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispy edges, you can briefly place the salmon under the broiler for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning the glaze.
  • If you prefer a thicker glaze, reduce the mixture slightly on the stovetop before brushing it on.
  • This salmon pairs well with mashed potatoes or roasted asparagus for a complete, healthy dinner.
