Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
-
Combine the honey, vinegar, soy sauce, and jalapeños in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then turn the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
-
While the sauce is simmering and the oven heating, pat the salmon fillets dry using a paper towel. Brush a 9-by-9-inch baking pan (or other similar-size baking pan or dish) with olive oil, then place the fillets in the pan about an inch apart. Brush the fillets generously with olive oil.
-
Pour the glaze and jalapeños over the salmon. Spoon or brush glaze onto the fish.
-
Roast the salmon for 6 minutes, then baste with the glaze. Return to the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through but still slightly rare in the center, another 6 to 8 minutes.
-
Spoon glaze over the salmon, then squeeze the lime over the salmon. Garnish with chopped cilantro, if desired.
Note
The sliced jalapeño adds a little kick to the salmon and the glaze. We've used both fresh and canned jalapeños, so either works well. , which flavors the honey glaze and cooks alongside the salmon. To keep this dinner simple, serve with a baked potato. If you prefer rice, you can spoon glaze over the rice when serving.
