  1. In a mixing bowl, combine fresh lime juice, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and olive oil. Whisk until glossy and fragrant.
  2. Place salmon fillets in a resealable plastic bag, pour marinade over fish, and gently massage to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
