Ingredients

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, paprika, salt, black pepper, and fresh lemon juice until well combined.
Step 3: Place the salmon fillets in the prepared baking dish and pour the marinade over them, making sure each fillet is evenly coated. Let marinate for 10-15 minutes.
Step 4: Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
Step 5: Remove the salmon from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Tips & Variations

Use fresh salmon and high-quality olive oil for the best flavor.
Allow the salmon to rest a few minutes after baking to let the juices redistribute.
Add fresh herbs such as dill or thyme to the marinade for extra flavor.
Adjust baking time depending on the thickness of your fillets to prevent overcooking.
Serve with roasted vegetables, garlic mashed potatoes, or a fresh garden salad for a complete meal.

Storage

Store leftover baked salmon in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to avoid drying out the fish.
