Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets, 6 ounces each, skin on
- 1 ½ tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 ½ teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
- Remove the salmon fillets from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature while you prepare the glaze and preheat the oven.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
- Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the low sodium soy sauce, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic until fully combined.
