Method
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the fillets evenly with 1 teaspoon of the kosher salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce (or tamari), minced garlic, olive oil, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt. Squeeze the juice from half of the lemon into the mixture and stir well.
- Brush or spoon the honey garlic glaze evenly over the top surface of each salmon fillet. Make sure the glaze coats the fish well.
- Bake the salmon for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fillets. The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the salmon from the oven. Garnish with thinly sliced scallions, if you are using them. Serve immediately.
