Notes

How to Reheat Salmon:

Oven: Ideal for even reheating.

Stovetop: Quick warm-up and crispy skin.

Air Fryer: Fast and crispy finish.

Tips for Perfect Honey Glazed Salmon:

Choose fillets of similar size for even cooking.

Use fresh garlic for the best flavor.

Adjust cook time depending on salmon size.

Check doneness with an instant-read thermometer (145°F/63°C).

Troubleshooting Your Honey Glazed Salmon:

Overcooked Salmon: Use a thermometer, remove slightly before done, and watch for flaky, opaque flesh.

Undercooked Salmon: Increase cook time slightly or use a thermometer.

Glaze Too Thick: Whisk in hot water or prevent over-reducing.

Glaze Too Thin: Simmer longer or add a cornstarch slurry.

Burnt Glaze: Cook over medium-low heat and stir frequently.
