In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine honey, chili flakes, soy sauce, 3 tablespoons of butter, lemon juice, and water. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in the cornstarch slurry until smooth. Return to medium heat and simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of cold butter and stir until incorporated. Transfer the sauce to a container to cool.

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper. Arrange the salmon filets on the tray. Season with salt and pepper, then brush each filet with olive oil.

Bake the salmon for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and generously spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the hot honey sauce over each filet, letting some drip onto the tray for caramelization. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
