Instructions

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Pro tip: Using parchment paper will prevent the salmon from sticking and make clean-up easier.

Prepare the glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, lime juice, ground coriander, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.

Pro tip: Ensure the honey is fully integrated for an even glaze.

Coat the salmon

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops evenly with olive oil, then generously coat with the honey and coriander glaze.

Pro tip: For an extra burst of flavour, let the salmon sit for 5 minutes to absorb the glaze.

Bake the salmon

Place the salmon in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).

Pro tip: Probe the thickest part of the salmon for an accurate temperature reading.

Rest and serve

Once cooked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Serve warm with your choice of sides.

Pro tip: Garnish with fresh coriander leaves for a touch of colour and freshness.
