Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• ¼ cup honey
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 1 (2 pound) salmon fillet, cut into 4-ounce portions

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Put soy sauce, honey, and garlic powder into a small, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave a few seconds at a time to liquefy the honey. Stir ingredients together.

Step 2

Place salmon in a glass or ceramic dish. Pour marinade over top, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and butter.

Step 4

Remove salmon from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade and arrange salmon in the skillet, skin-side down. Cook until the edges turn opaque, about 8 minutes. Flip salmon and peel off the skin. Cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 more minutes. Flip salmon over to brown both sides.
