This delectable Honey Glazed Salmon is a juicy, flaky, and incredibly satisfying dish that can be prepared in less than 20 minutes. Its quick and versatile nature, combined with the irresistible sweet and tangy flavors, make it a must-try. Squeeze fresh lime juice over this honey-glazed salmon and serve it with fluffy white rice for a delightful meal. It has earned its place among our favorite salmon recipes, alongside Teriyaki Salmon and Tuscan Salmon.
This recipe was inspired by a reader way back in 2017 and has since become a household staple (Thanks for sharing it!). The method of dredging the salmon in flour creates a delightful crust that beautifully holds the caramelized sauce. Some of our most beloved recipes have come from our wonderful community’s suggestions.
Ingredients
- Salmon fillets – use boneless, skinless fillets (coho, king, or sockeye wild-caught salmon are preferred, but thawed frozen fillets work too)
- All-purpose flour – for a thickened glaze that sticks to the salmon
- Light olive oil – prevents the salmon from sticking to the pan
- Honey – for its sweet caramelized flavor in the marinade
- Soy sauce – adds a delicious umami touch to the glaze (for a gluten-free option, see substitutions below)
- Lime – balances the sweet and savory flavors of the glaze (save some wedges for serving)
