Ingredients
- 2 salmon filets
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- Zest of 1 lime
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 pressed garlic clove
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Juice of 1/2 lime
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- To make the browned butter lime sauce, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until the foam subsides and the butter begins to turn a golden brown, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic, honey and lime juice, salt and pepper, to taste; set aside.
- Season salmon with salt and pepper, to taste. Dredge each salmon filet with 1 tablespoon flour and drizzle with 1 tablespoon honey.
- Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium high heat. Working in batches, add salmon to the skillet and sear both sides until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side.
- Place into oven and bake until completely cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
- Serve immediately with browned butter lime sauce and lime zest, if desired.
