Soy Honey Butter Salmon is my latest roasted salmon recipe.
The salmon is baked in the oven, flavored with soy sauce, honey and butter.
It’s one of the easiest salmon dish you will make at home with only a few basic pantry ingredients, and it’s bold in flavors.
Salmon is one of the healthiest fish to eat and cooking salmon can be super easy.
Foil wrapped roasted salmon in oven delivers amazing results, with really short active time.
The end result is always juicy, moist and tender salmon as the foil seals in the flavors.
This Asian-inspired soy honey butter salmon is great with steamed rice, noodles, or pasta.
Serve the salmon right out of oven, it’s absolutely delightful.
My picky eater ate a big chunk of the salmon and asked for more.
Try this salmon recipe the next time you buy salmon.
Enjoy!

So excited to find this new recipe for salmon, using foil instead of parchment paper. Used olive oil instead of butter, but I know it will be fantastic! Also, made it two hours early. It’s ready and resting in the fridge!
Thanks.
Super easy and delicious, Bee. My family loved it as well.

Hi Bee. I made this recipe last night and my kids loved it. I used about 2 lbs of salmon and kinda double the ingredients and I didn’t use fresh parsley (kids don’t like it) or lemon slices (didn’t have any at home) but it turned out so yummy? (said my kids). I used the leftover and made onigirazu (Japanese rice sandwich) for the kids lunches the next day. This will definitely be a repeat in my meal plan. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe with everyone. Bon appétit!!!

Hi Bee! Made this recipe before and it is wonderful! Making this again tomorrow but ran out of parsley. Can I use coriander instead? Should I use the same amount? Thank you :)9
Yes it will be fine.
I made recipe as written except placed lemon slices on top of the Salmon. Absolutely delicious, easy, and company worthy!
Hi Karen, love the lemon slices on the salmon. Thanks for trying my recipe!
Can you use Powered garlic and how much?I dont use fresh garlic because I dont know what to do with it
I wouldn’t use powdered garlic. You can buy fresh peeled garlic and just sliced and chop them finely.
Made this for lunch. We like it so much especially my 4 years old son. Thank you for the lovely recipe
Hi Li, thanks for trying my soy honey butter salmon recipe. Great that your son loves it. :)
Delicious dish. Thank you
I just made this and it was terrific! Only substitution is I had no fresh parsley and I used a Truvia/Agave blend rather than honey. It was simple and so tasty!! It will be a repeat here!!
This is looking an awesome recipe, I must try it in coming days.
i can’t wait to try this at home. Hope the taste will be like what you cooked.
Of course, it will.
