- Make your salmon marinate. You will need to mince garlic, In a bowl add the garlic, honey, butter and 1/4 lime juice. Also, slice 1/2 lime thinly.
- Add slices of lime on the foil with olive oil. Sprinkle dash of salt and pepper on both sides of the salmon. Then pour the marinate both sides and top off with lime slices. Allow to marinate for 10-15 minutes before baking. Fold the foil over.
- Pre-heat toaster oven to 350 F on bake. When warm, put your salmon in and bake for 15-20 minutes.

*This baked honey lime salmon can feed 1-2 people and pan seared salmon can feed 1-2 people.
