Lemon Garlic Honey Salmon
We have salmon fairly regularly and were kinda running out of ways to cook it up. This Lemon Garlic Honey Salmon recipe is a combination of a few of our favorite add ons to salmon filets. And it turned out very tasty. Of course

How to cook up your Lemon Garlic Honey Salmon
You can use salmon with the skin on or gone.
Put a skillet on at medium high. Add just enough olive oil to coat the bottom. Then about a tablespoon of butter.
Put your the salmon filets in a bowl. Add the lemon juice, garlic powder (or chopped fresh garlic), honey and some black pepper. A little lemon pepper also if you have some on hand. No salt needed. The salmon comes with it’s own. Turn the salmon filets over a few times to get all the ingredients mixed up and the salmon coated with them.
Lay the salmon in the skillet with the skin up. Or if they have been skinned, the flat side with the gray stripe up. Depending on how done that you like your salmon and how thick the filets are, cook them for from 2-5 minutes each side. . Squeeze just a little more honey on the filets as they cook. Test them just like you would chicken or beef. Poke them and the more firm that they are the more well done that they are.
When your Lemon Garlic Honey Salmon filets are done serve them up.
We had ours with some focaccia bread and some spinach salad.
Those french fries that you see took four minutes in our air frier. We’re really liking it.
