Ingredients

• 1.5 to 2 lbs salmon fillet
• 1/3 cup pure honey
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• 1/3 cup coarse grain Dijon mustard
• 3 TB freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• Parsley chopped for garnish
• 1 lemon, sliced, for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400F with rack on middle position. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with a big sheet of heavy duty foil that’s large enough to fully wrap salmon fillet. Set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, garlic, shallots, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
3. Use paper towels to dab off all excess moisture from salmon fillet. Place salmon onto foil-lined baking sheet. Evenly spoon most of the honey mixture (reserve 1/3 cup of the mixture for later) over the salmon. Carefully fold all four sides of the foil so that it creates a “packet” that seals tightly closed and won’t leak.
4. Bake 10-15 min (10 minutes for a salmon less than 1-inch thick, 15 min for thicker salmon) While salmon cooks, transfer reserved 1/3 cup of honey mixture to a small saucepan or microwavable bowl and cook just until the onions/garlic are soft. You’ll use this for serving on the side.
5. Gently open the foil packet, leaving salmon on the foil (may seem slightly undercooked, which is ok). Move oven rack to upper position and broil salmon under high broil for about 3 minutes or until nicely browned on top; if needed, rotate salmon and broil until desired brownness. Watch closely, as top can easily over-brown.
6. Serve salmon with reserved/cooked honey sauce. Garnish as desired, with freshly chopped parsley and/or lemon slices.
