Instructions
-
Position a rack in the middle of the oven. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Line a baking tray or sheet with a large piece of foil, big enough to fold over and seal to create a packet or 2 long pieces of foil overlapping each other lengthways to create your salmon packet, depending on the width of you fillet.
-
In a small saucepan, combine the honey, mustard, butter, garlic, and lemon. Whisk until the honey has melted through the butter and the mixture is well combined.
-
Place the salmon onto a lined baking tray or sheet. Pour the butter or honey mixture over the salmon, and using a pastry brush or spoon, spread evenly over the salmon.
-
Sprinkle with a good amount of salt and cracked pepper. Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon to cover and completely seal the packet closed so the butter does not leak.
-
Bake until cooked through for about 10 to 12 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish and your preference of doneness.
-
Open the foil and grill or broil under the grill or broiler for 3 to 4 minutes on medium heat to caramelize the top.
-
Garnish with parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
