A perfect sweet and savoury 5-ingredient garlicky sauce with a hint of lemon will become your family’s new salmon obsession.

Cooking Instructions
  1. Arrange oven shelf to the middle of your oven. Preheat oven to broil/grill settings on medium heat.

  2. Season salmon with salt, pepper and paprika. Set aside.

  3. Heat the butter in a skillet or pan over medium-high heat until melted.
    Add the garlic and sauté for about a minute, until fragrant.
    Pour in the honey, water and soy sauce; allow the flavours to heat through and combine.
    Add in the lemon juice; stir well to combine all of the flavours together.

  4. Add the salmon steaks to the sauce in the pan.
    Cook each fillet (skin-side down if there's any skin) for 3-4 minutes or until golden, while basting the tops with the pan juices.
    Season with salt and pepper, to taste (if desired).

  5. Baste salmon one more time then transfer the pan to your oven to broil / grill for a further 5-6 minutes, or until the tops of the salmon are nicely charred, and the salmon is cooked to your liking.

To serve, drizzle with the sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with steamed vegetables; over rice or with a salad.
Enjoy!
