Easy Pan Glazed Honey Garlic Salmon Recipe - Delicious!

Seafood and salmon, in particular, are widely researched for their health benefits. While research has mainly focused on anti-inflammatory Omega 3 fat, salmon is also rich in vitamins and micronutrients. I love to include delicious and healthy recipes for my family.

Tips
Salmon with Honey Garlic Glaze and Asparagus on Plate
  • You can spoon the remaining marinade over the salmon at the table with lemon wedges. (I always make extra marinade to serve at the table.)
  • Removing Skin from Salmon – You can slide a sharp knife carefully under the skin to remove it if you prefer eating salmon without the skin.
  • This glazed salmon recipe is also delicious with an inch of peeled, chopped ginger. You can add the chopped ginger when sauteing the garlic.
  • Serve with your favorite green veggie and rice.
  • Store leftover Salmon in an airtight container. Salmon is superb the next day, flaked over greens or a salad.
