# Ingredients:

→ Main

01 - 4 salmon fillets

02 - Salt, to taste

03 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Spice blend

04 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder

05 - 1 teaspoon onion powder

06 - 1/4 teaspoon chili powder

07 - 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

08 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

→ For cooking

09 - 2 tablespoons olive oil

→ Sauce

10 - 2–3 garlic cloves, minced

11 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce

12 - 2 tablespoons honey

13 - Juice of 1/2 lemon

→ Finishing touches

14 - Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

# Instructions:

01 - Pat the salmon fillets dry using kitchen paper. Season both sides evenly with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, dried oregano, and smoked paprika.

02 - Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down and cook for 4–5 minutes per side until deeply golden and just cooked through. Transfer to a warm plate and set aside.

03 - Reduce the heat to medium. Add minced garlic to the same pan and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring frequently. Add soy sauce and honey, stirring to combine. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon and blend well.

04 - Return the salmon fillets to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top. Allow to simmer for 1 minute to glaze. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before transferring to serving plates.

# Notes:

01 - Do not overcook the salmon to maintain a tender, flaky texture. Thoroughly patting fillets dry aids browning and crisping.
