Instructions

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk together honey, soy sauce and garlic in a small bowl.
Arrange salmon filets on baking sheet (skin side down if it has skin) and brush with half the teriyaki glaze. Bake for 6 minutes, brush with remaining glaze, then continue baking until salmon reaches 125ºF internal temperature (or flakes easily with a fork); about 6-9 minutes more.
To make creamy sesame sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise and sesame oil. Drizzle over salmon and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired.
