Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, pineapple juice, soy sauce, and minced garlic.
Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add salmon fillets, skin side down if applicable, and sear for 3–4 minutes until golden brown.
Flip the salmon fillets and pour the honey-pineapple glaze over them.
Reduce heat to medium and let the salmon cook for another 4–5 minutes, basting occasionally with the sauce until the salmon is cooked through and the glaze is thickened.
Remove from heat. Garnish with pineapple slices and chopped parsley if desired.
Serve hot with your favorite sides!

Notes

Adjust the amount of honey if you prefer it less sweet.
This dish pairs wonderfully with rice, quinoa, or a fresh green salad.
Use fresh pineapple juice for the best flavor, but bottled will work in a pinch.
