Occasionally I come up with recipes myself, but usually it is a variation of things I see online. This past week, we had a decent amount of salmon as our grocery store had amazing fresh (Canadian) salmon. I like recipes that offer a lot of flavor with not too many ingredients so whenever I see a recipe that looks like it packs a delicious punch with minimal effort, I am all for it. I found this recipe from cafedelites.com/2016/06/26/honey-garlic-butter-salmon-foil/ It looks delicious so I figured I would give it a go. Her recipe called for a lot more salmon than mine so I made some modifications to the ingredients. What you will need: 2 tbsp butter 2 tbsp honey (I used organic / all natural honey) 2 tbsp lemon juice (fresh is always better but I had no lemons on hand!) 2 medium size garlic gloves salt and pepper to taste parsley to garnish **lemon slices are optional and completely up to you. Once the salmon is on the tinfoil, spoon the sauce over the salmon and apply the salt and pepper. You can use 1/2 tsp if you wish but generally I feel that salt and pepper should be left to the discretion of the person who is cooking. Not everyone likes the same level of salt in their food. Following this, wrap the salmon up tight in the tinfoil so that the sauce cannot escape and end up on the baking pan. Set the oven to 375F and cook for 17-19 minutes. When your timer has gone off, switch the oven to broil and allow the salmon to broil for 3-5 minutes. This will give the salmon a beautiful glaze on top. When I was making this, I noticed that part of the tinfoil got burned from the sauce, do not panic this is completely normal. Use your judgement for how much of a glaze you would like on the salmon before removing it from the oven. Take the salmon out of the oven and garnish with parsley (and lemon slices if you wish) and serve immediately. Enjoy! Comments are closed.
