I’m a huge fan of using fresh seafood at every stop, and in the video, for this honey garlic salmon, I show you how to store the salmon or freeze it for a later date. Any salmon bread is great to use in this recipe and you can cook it with the skin on or off. I always recommend asking the fishmonger at the counter to remove the bones before purchasing.

Ingredients for this recipe:

• 4 8-ounce skin off salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Chef Notes:

Make-Ahead: This recipe is meant to be eaten right away; however, you can make it up to 30 minutes ahead of time, just keep it warm before serving.

How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This will freeze covered for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator for 1 day before reheating.

How to Reheat: Add the desired number of salmon and sauce to a pan and cook in the oven at 350° for 4-5 minutes or until warmed. You can also heat in the microwave until warm.

You can also grill the salmon instead of cooking in a pan over medium to high heat for 3-4 minutes per side and then make the sauce separate in a pan.

The oils I prefer to use are olive, safflower, canola, peanut, or grapeseed.

Any bread of salmon is good to use in this recipe.

You can use your favorite frying pan for this.

It is absolutely ok to cook salmon to temperature. I enjoy serving and eating it at a medium to medium-well internal temperature.
