Equipment

  • measuring spoons
  • dry measuring cups
  • rimmed baking sheet
  • small saucepan
  • whisk
  • meat thermometer

Ingredients

  • 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
  • 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Sprinkle the salmon with the Old Bay seasoning.
  • Place the salmon on a parchment paper-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake the salmon for 6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the honey, lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and crushed red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the mixture is syrupy, about 3 minutes.
