HONEY GLAZED SALMON

My daughter sent me this recipe from Pinterest (courtesy of damndelicious.net). It is amazing and so easy to prepare without much time on that evening you are working late but want a home cooked meal. 

4 salmon filets

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

4 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons olive oil

zest of 1 lime

For the browned butter lime sauce

6 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 cloves garlic, pressed

1 tablespoon honey

Juice of 1 lime

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. 

To make the browned butter lime sauce, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until the foam subsides and the butter begins to turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic, honey, and lime juice, salt and pepper, to taste; set aside. 

Season salmon with salt and pepper, to taste. Dredge each salmon filet with 1 tablespoon flour and drizzle with 1 tablespoon honey. 

Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium high heat. Add salmon to skillet and sear both sides until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side.

Place into oven and bake until cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. 

Serve immediately on top of brown rice, drizzle salmon with browned butter lime sauce and lime zest.
