- Place salmon fillet and steamed asparagus on the prepared baking sheet; season with salt and pepper.

Reviews
Years ago I tried the soy sauce and honey combination. I also added garlic and ginger. I first tried it on pork chops, then chicken and then salmon. It makes everything taste delicious, especially on the barbeque. Now I see this recipe all over the internet, so I guess I must have been doing something right.
This is a WINNER! Delicious, Very Easy, and Quick! I followed a couple other reviewers for the marinade and increased low sodium soy sauce and honey from 1TBS to 3TBSP each, and add about 2 cloves fresh minced garlic. Reserve enough to drizzle over fish when ready to serve. Serve with a wedge of lemon.
This recipe was delicious!
This was so easy and delicious. I added a little garlic and I cooked the salmon a total of 10 minutes. This is quick, easy and tasty dish.
This recipe was in my AllRecipes magazine. Their recipe said to place the asparagus with the salmon (no prep needed). Such a simple, tasty, and healthy meal! It was perfect and I will definitely be making it again.
This was delicious, I’ll be making this again soon. I made one error and added some glaze to the salmon before I started the initial bake cycle (I added the rest as directed). Other than this, I made it as written. I think adding the glaze initially caused some of the glaze to blacken/burn. Those parts were still good too.
An easy meal. Per magazine directions, I threw everything into the pan. The family requested a thicker glaze. I will add a hint of ginger and garlic next round
This was easy and excellent. i doubled the sauce for 4 servings
Super easy! I made with fresh cut salmon steaks skin down. I added a little garlic salt on the finish. When pulling the fillets off of the foil, the skin peeled right off which was great. Family loved this recipe.
This recipe is a go-to at our house! Simple, minimal prep and delicious!
Delicious quick and easy
Delicious and SO easy!
Simple, easy and flavorful! No need to steam the asparagus unless large stalks. Will be making it again.
Absolutely wonderful! be careful of the honey burning on the salmon it kind of snuck up on me. but it turned out great! delicious and easy
I am not a big fan of salmon. I would make it again but I would double sauce and add garlic. I made it exactly the way recipe described.
This is an excellent preparation for quick, easy, delicious salmon filets that the whole family loves! I don’t bother with the asparagus because it’s not a favorite in our house. Just prepare the salmon as directed and add a side of stir-fried veggies with a teriyaki glaze and some steamed rice! Perfect!
I added Sriracha sauce to give it a little kick and used all other original ingredients
I didn’t make any changes. I am not a fish person, but I would make this again.
I added minced garlic and lemon to the glaze. It came out very good. My sons and I loved it!
Used all the ingredients, and added minced garlic. I made 3 times the amount of glaze and marinated the salmon in it for 25 min before broiling. Very tasty. will make again. thank you for sharing.
This has a great taste! Broiling makes it, since its February and I can’t grill it! I didn’t have asparagus but was looking for a good sauce for my salmon. All I added was a clove of minced garlic! Excellent!
