Baked honey cilantro lime salmon baked in foil is cooked to tender, flaky perfection in just 30 minutes with a flavorful garlic and honey lime glaze.

Ingredients

  • 1 large salmon fillet ((see note))
  • salt and pepper ( to taste)
  • ½ cup butter (melted (see note))
  • juice of 2 limes ((plus one lime, thinly sliced))
  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • ⅓ cup cilantro (roughly chopped)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line and grease a large baking sheet with foil. Lay salmon on foil and season with salt and pepper on both sides to taste. Slip lime slices underneath the salmon.

  2. 2

    Stir together butter, lime juice, honey, and garlic. Pour mixture over salmon. Fold sides of foil up over the salmon (don't worry if it doesn't cover the salmon completely).

  3. 3

    Bake for 15-20 minutes. Switch oven to broil and cook another 5 minutes. Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.
