# Ingredients:
→ For the Salmon
01 -
A handful of chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, about 2 tablespoons
02 -
4 to 5 slices of lemon, pop these on before serving
03 -
Toss in salt till it tastes right for you
04 -
Give it a good grind of black pepper
05 -
Splash in 30 ml of fresh lemon juice
06 -
Grab 4 big garlic cloves and crush them up
07 -
Pour in 80 ml honey
08 -
Around 55 grams unsalted butter
09 -
1.1 kg salmon side, leave the skin on, all bones out
# Steps:
01 -
Pop the salmon straight onto a big plate. Toss on some parsley and lay on those lemon slices. Enjoy while it’s hot.
02 -
Carefully pull back the foil and let the steam escape. Set your broiler to medium and stick the fish under it for a couple minutes till you see that lovely crust forming.
03 -
Get the tray in the oven and let the salmon cook for about 15 to 18 minutes. Thickness decides how long—look for the fish to turn opaque and just finish cooking through.
04 -
Fold the foil over and pinch the edges closed all the way around. You want it sealed so the juices stay in.
05 -
Set your salmon, skin down, on the foil-wrapped tray. Pour the tasty honey garlic butter you made all over it, spreading with a spoon or brush till you cover it totally. Sprinkle a bunch of salt and pepper on top.
06 -
Heat your small saucepan on low to medium. Melt the butter, then stir in honey, garlic, and lemon juice. Mix it up till everything’s nice and smooth and the honey melts down.
07 -
Turn your oven to 190°C so it’s nice and hot. Lay out a big sheet of foil on a baking tray. If it’s not big enough for the salmon, use two foil sheets overlapped.
# Notes:
01 -
If your salmon won’t fit on one piece of foil, just lay two sheets on top of each other to make sure nothing leaks out.
