Tips and Tricks to make the perfect One Pan Honey Citrus Salmon:

  • I like eating fish, but I always try to buy wild-caught, which I highly recommend as well. Also, you can read about the benefits of wild-caught fish here.
  • Run your finger over the salmon fillet before cooking to make sure there are no pin bones.
  • In addition, for more enhanced flavor, I would recommend to let the salmon sit in the citrus mixture for 5-10 minutes to absorb it prior to cooking.
  • Add more or less honey, adjust to your own preference.
  • The garlic can be skipped, but I like the savory flavor it adds.
  • When cooking salmon, it’s better to undercook than overcook. Therefore, I like to start checking a big piece like this after 15 minutes.
  • When baking, it’s better to cover the salmon with foil, so it doesn’t dry out on the top and it cooks more uniformly.
  • You can top the salmon with 2-3 tablespoons of melted butter, to make it extra flaky and the sauce creamier.
  • Add a few red pepper flakes for a spicer touch.
  • Serve with rice or a green salad.
