This recipe delivers a delightful balance of savory and sweet flavors with a zesty twist, perfect for a quick and healthy dinner.
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Ensure your oven is fully preheated before placing the salmon inside for even cooking.
Spray a baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Using a non-stick spray ensures easy cleanup and prevents the salmon from sticking.
Place the salmon fillets in the dish, skin side down.
Arrange the fillets evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
Sprinkle the salmon with garlic powder and freshly ground black pepper.
Season generously for a flavorful crust.
In a small bowl, mix honey and the juice of half a lemon.
Warm the honey slightly if it's too thick to mix easily.
Drizzle the glaze over the salmon fillets evenly.
Use a spoon to spread the glaze for even coverage.
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, depending on thickness.
Check for doneness by ensuring the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
