1. 1Pat salmon dry and check for pin bones. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Whisk honey, soy sauce, lemon juice and water in a small bowl.
2. 2Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon skin-side down if it has skin and cook for 4–5 minutes without moving until the underside browns.
3. 3Carefully turn salmon and cook for 2–3 minutes on the other side. Transfer to a clean plate while you prepare the glaze; thicker pieces will finish in the sauce.
4. 4Reduce heat to medium-low. Melt butter and stir in garlic for 30 seconds. Pour in honey mixture and simmer gently for 1–2 minutes, stirring. Add a little water if the glaze becomes too thick; do not let the sugars burn.
5. 5Return salmon to the skillet and spoon glaze over it. Cook gently for 1–3 minutes more, until the thickest part of each fillet reaches 145°F. Remove from heat and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges.
6. 6Serve with rice and steamed vegetables. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours for up to 3–4 days and reheat to 165°F with a splash of water.
