Method
 

How to Make Honey Glazed Salmon
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F. This high temperature helps achieve a beautifully caramelized glaze that enhances the rich flavor of the salmon.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. This step not only makes cleanup easy but also helps the salmon cook evenly.
  3. Arrange the salmon filets skin-side down on the lined baking sheet. Make sure to space them out for even cooking, allowing the heat to circulate freely.
  4. Combine honey and ketchup in a small mixing bowl until smooth. This mixture creates a delicious glaze that adds a sweet and savory flavor to your salmon.
  5. Spread the honey-ketchup mixture evenly over the top of the salmon filets. Ensure every filet gets a lovely coat to maximize the flavor.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 18 minutes, or until the salmon is flaky and cooked through. Check for that beautiful, golden color to ensure it's ready!
