Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the sheet and poke a few holes in them with a fork. Sprinkle some black pepper over the top.

In a small pan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the olive oil, white cooking wine, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, onion salt, mustard, and hot pepper sauce. Let it warm through for about five minutes while whisking everything together.

Step 3
Brush this flavorful butter mixture generously over the salmon. Pop the fish into the oven and bake, brushing more of the sauce over the fillets every five minutes. After about 15 minutes, the salmon should start to flake easily.

Once it’s nearly done, drizzle honey over each piece and put it back in the oven for another 3 to 5 minutes. This will give the salmon a nice, glossy glaze. Serve and enjoy!

Serving Suggestions

Storage Tips
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the salmon moist. Avoid freezing after cooking, as the texture may become dry.
