Ingredients:
– 2 salmon fillets (about 4-6 ounces each)

– 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium)
– 1 garlic clove, minced (or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Lemon wedges (for serving)
– Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

3. Prepare the Salmon:
   Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish. Season them lightly with salt and pepper.

4. Add the Sauce:
   Pour the honey garlic sauce over the salmon, making sure to coat them evenly. You can also spoon some of the sauce over the top to ensure it’s well covered.

5. Bake:
   Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of the fillets.

6. Serve:
