Instructions

Preheat the Grill:

Preheat your outdoor grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Season the Salmon:

Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels.
Brush each fillet with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.

Prepare the Glaze:

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, low-sodium soy sauce, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using) until smooth.

Grill the Salmon:

Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin side down if applicable.
Grill for about 6–7 minutes per side, or until the salmon is just cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F/63°C).
During the last 2–3 minutes of grilling, generously brush the glaze over the fillets, allowing it to caramelize slightly on the surface.

Finish and Serve:

Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve immediately, garnished with a wedge of lemon or a sprinkle of fresh parsley, alongside your favorite side dishes.

Notes

For an extra burst of citrus, add an additional teaspoon of lemon juice to the glaze.
If you don’t have a grill, you can broil the salmon in the oven on a baking sheet at 400°F (200°C) for about 10–12 minutes, brushing with the glaze during the final minutes.
Serve with steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete, balanced meal.
Enjoy your Grilled Honey Glazed Salmon—a sweet, savory, and healthy dinner that brings a radiant shine to your family feast!
