Key Lime Honey Glazed Salmon

Key Lime Honey Glazed Salmon

Salmon is my favorite type of fish, and this glaze was fantastic! The mixture of key lime juice with the sweetness of honey and a little spice from the topping makes for a delicious entrée.

Ingredients:

1-2 pound salmon filet with skin on

¼ cup honey

Zest from 1 lime

2 tablespoons key lime juice

1 tablespoon light brown sugar

½ teaspoon ground cumin

¼ teaspoon smoked paprika

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Line a 9×13 baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray with nonstick spray.
  3. Place the salmon skin side down in the dish. Fold the foil up to the edges of the salmon.
  4. Mix the brown sugar, cumin, and paprika in a small bowl.  Sprinkle over the salmon and allow it to soak in.
  5. Mix the key lime juice and zest with the honey.
  6. Spread ½ of the mixture over the salmon.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes.  Add more of the honey mixture.
  8. Bake another 10-20 minutes until the salmon is cooked through.
  9. Add more of the honey glaze.
  10. Serve!
