A delightful salmon dish with a sweet and tangy honey ginger glaze, perfect for a quick and healthy dinner.
Preheat your broiler to high and prepare a broiler pan by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray.
Ensure the broiler pan is positioned about 6 inches from the heat source for even cooking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic to create the glaze.
Mix the glaze thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined for a consistent flavor.
Season the salmon fillets lightly with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel before seasoning to help the glaze adhere better.
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared broiler pan and brush the glaze generously over the top of each fillet.
Apply the glaze in layers for a richer flavor, allowing it to slightly soak in between applications.
Broil the salmon for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.
Keep an eye on the salmon to prevent overcooking; it should flake easily with a fork when done.
Serve the salmon hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired, alongside a fresh salad or steamed vegetables.
For a complete meal, pair the salmon with a side of quinoa or wild rice.
