Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon with Asparagus on a plate

Ingredients

Servings4

Yields 4 servings

  • (4) salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • (1) bunch asparagus (about 1 lb)
  • (1/4 cups) honey
  • (3 tablespoons) soy sauce
  • (2 cloves) garlic, minced
  • (1 tablespoon) olive oil
  • (1 teaspoon) sesame oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • (1 tablespoon) sesame seeds (optional)
  • (2) green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200 °C).

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup honey, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, and 2 minced garlic cloves to create the glaze.

  3. 3

    Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the honey garlic glaze over the salmon fillets, reserving some for later.

  5. 5

    Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and arrange them around the salmon on the baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  6. 6

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the asparagus is tender.

  7. 7

    In the last 5 minutes of baking, drizzle the remaining glaze over the salmon and asparagus for extra flavor.

  8. 8

    Once done, remove from the oven and drizzle with 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish before serving.
