Instructions

1. 1Place the butter in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Stir and swirl the pan occasionally for 3–4 minutes until the foam settles, the butter turns golden brown, and it develops a nutty aroma.
2. 2Pour the honey into the browned butter and stir for 30 seconds until dissolved. Add the minced fresh garlic and sauté for 1 minute over medium heat until fragrant.
3. 3Stir in the fresh lemon juice and combine all flavors together.
4. 4Arrange the salmon fillets skin-side down in the pan over medium-high heat. Cook for 3–4 minutes, basting the tops with pan juices frequently, until the skin is golden brown and crispy.
5. 5Arrange the lemon wedges around the salmon in the pan. Transfer the entire skillet to a preheated broiler set 8 inches from the heat element. Broil for 5–6 minutes until the salmon tops are lightly charred and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
6. 6Remove the skillet from the broiler and let rest for 1 minute.
7. 7Divide the salmon, lemon wedges, and pan sauce evenly into 4 airtight containers while hot. Allow to cool to room temperature before sealing and refrigerating.
