Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

3 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

3 garlic cloves, minced

1 teaspoon lime zest

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, lime juice, minced garlic, lime zest, salt, and pepper until combined.

      Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on a lined baking sheet.

        Drizzle the honey-lime garlic butter mixture generously over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated.

          Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

            For an added touch, broil the salmon for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end to caramelize the glaze slightly (keep an eye on it to avoid burning).

              Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes.

                Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.
