Honey Lime Garlic Butter Salmon (Page 2 ) | August 5, 2025

Instructions

1. Season the salmon: Pat the fillets dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Sear the salmon: In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tbsp of butter. Cook salmon skin-side down (if applicable) for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and fully cooked. Set aside.
3. Make the sauce: In the same skillet, add the remaining butter, garlic, honey, lime juice, and zest. Stir and simmer for 1–2 minutes until slightly thickened.
4. Return the salmon: Add salmon back to the pan, spoon sauce over, and heat for 1 more minute.
5. Garnish & serve: Top with fresh parsley and serve with lime wedges.

Methods

This dish uses the pan-searing method to lock in flavor and achieve a perfect crust on the salmon. A quick reduction creates a glossy, flavorful sauce that coats the fish beautifully.

Formation

Layering textures and flavors — crispy-edged salmon, silky honey-lime sauce, and fresh herbs — creates a multidimensional dish that feels gourmet with minimal effort.
