Creating Honey Garlic Salmon is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, and lemon juice until well combined.
2. Season Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and season both sides with salt and pepper.
3. Marinate: Pour half of the honey garlic marinade over the salmon, ensuring each fillet is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
4. Preheat Pan: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little olive oil to the pan.
5. Cook Salmon: Remove the salmon from the marinade, letting excess marinade drip off. Place the fillets skin-side down in the hot skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes.
6. Flip Salmon: Carefully flip the fillets and pour the remaining marinade over the top. Continue to cook for another 4-5 minutes, until salmon flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
7. Glaze: If desired, allow the sauce to simmer for another minute to thicken slightly. Remove from heat.
8. Garnish: Transfer the salmon to a serving platter. Drizzle with any remaining glaze and top with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if using.
