Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon
  1. Begin by rinsing your salmon fillets under cold water. Pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels to eliminate moisture, ensuring you achieve that perfect crispy finish when cooking. Set the fillets aside, and prepare your workspace by gathering the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and olive oil.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, low-sodium soy sauce, and minced garlic until the mixture is smooth and combined. Set the glaze aside for later.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy.
  4. Gently flip the salmon fillets using a fish spatula to maintain their shape. Brush half of the prepared glaze over the top. Continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, monitoring the internal temperature until it reaches 145°F.
  5. Remove the salmon from the skillet and place it on a serving platter. Drizzle any remaining glaze over the top and garnish with freshly chopped green onions.
