Baked Honey Lime Cilantro Salmon

Baked honey cilantro lime salmon in foil is cooked to tender, flaky perfection in just 30 minutes with a flavorful garlic and honey lime glaze. And because it’s cooked in foil clean up is fast and easy as well. It’s as good, if not better, than any salmon you’ll order at your favorite restaurant. Simple ingredients too…just salmon, lime slices, butter, lime juice, honey, garlic, cilantro, salt and pepper. This could be the perfect after-work recipe for time-crunched cooks. Juice a couple of limes, throw butter in the microwave, mix, stir, pour and bake.

1 large salmon fillet

Salt and pepper, to taste

½ cup butter, melted

Juice of 2 limes (plus one lime, thinly sliced)

4 tablespoons honey

3 teaspoons minced garlic

⅓ cup cilantro, roughly chopped

Line a large baking sheet with foil and grease.

Lay salmon on foil and season with salt and pepper on both sides to taste.

Slip lime slices underneath the salmon.

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).

Bake for 15-20 minutes.

Switch oven to broil and cook another 5 minutes.

Sprinkle chopped cilantro over the top and serve.
