This spicy honey-glazed salmon is a symphony of flavors with a balance of heat and sweetness that complements the richness of the salmon. Paired with roasted asparagus, this meal is both nutritious and flavorful, making it an ideal weeknight dinner. The honey caramelizes slightly in the oven, giving the salmon a beautiful, sticky crust, while a dash of chili powder adds a gentle kick. Served with a side of lemon wedges, this dish will satisfy your taste buds and bring a little excitement to your plate.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, mix honey, chili powder, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to create the glaze.
Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish and brush the glaze generously over each fillet.
Trim the asparagus and place it alongside the salmon in the baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra zest.
