Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the oven

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

2
Prepare the salmon

Place salmon fillets on prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

3
Prepare the garlic

Peel and mince the garlic.

4
Prepare the lemon

Cut lemon in half. Squeeze juice from half the lemon. Slice the other half into rounds for garnish.

5
Make the honey mustard glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, mustard, oil, minced garlic, and lemon juice.

6
Apply the glaze

Pour the honey mustard mixture over the salmon fillets. Use a brush to ensure even coverage.

7
Bake the salmon

Bake for 12-15 minutes, depending on thickness. Salmon should flake easily with a fork when done. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).

8
Optional broiling

For a more caramelized finish, broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

9
Serve

Transfer salmon to plates. Garnish with lemon slices. Serve immediately.
