Instructions

Instructions

  • Move an oven rack to the third-from-top position and set the oven to High Broil to preheat while you prepare the salmon.
  • Place the 1 pound salmon in a large baking dish. Drizzle 2 tsp avocado oil over the flesh and use your hands or a brush to coat the surface evenly.
  • Sprinkle sea salt to taste, ½ tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp paprika evenly over the salmon.
  • Put the baking dish under the broiler (on the rack you positioned) and broil for 10–13 minutes, or until the outside is crisp and a digital thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 145°F. Cooking time will vary with salmon thickness.
  • While the salmon is broiling, melt 2 Tbsp salted butter in a small microwave-safe bowl: cover the bowl (to prevent splatter) and microwave for 20–40 seconds, or until melted.
  • Stir 2 Tbsp honey into the melted butter until combined. If the mixture is difficult to combine, microwave an additional 10 seconds and stir again.
  • Remove the salmon from the oven, drizzle the hot honey-butter evenly over the fillets, and serve.

Equipment
