Description

Beautiful, crispy salmon fillets with a honey-pecan glaze that is easy and delicious!

Ingredients
  • 1 cup pecan halves or pieces
  • 1 cup honey
  • ¾ cup butter
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 4 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
  • salt and pepper to taste
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until slightly browned. Stir 2 or 3 times to toast uniformly.
  2. 2. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine honey with half of the butter. Stir in the toasted pecans, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes to infuse the flavors. Remove from heat, and keep warm.
  3. 3. Melt remaining butter with oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper. Arrange fillets in skillet, and cook until firm to the touch, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Transfer to serving plate, and spoon glaze over top.
