Recipe: Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon
Ingredients:
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each), skin-on or skinless
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Sesame seeds and chopped green onions, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Honey Garlic Glaze:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, lemon juice, and grated ginger until well combined. Set aside.
Marinate the Salmon:
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
- Season the salmon with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Pour half of the honey garlic glaze over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to marinate.
Cook the Salmon:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the skillet is hot, add the salmon fillets to the pan, skin side down if using skin-on fillets.
- Cook the salmon for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the glaze has caramelized slightly.
- Baste the salmon with the remaining honey garlic glaze as it cooks to add extra flavor and moisture.
- If the glaze begins to burn, reduce the heat slightly and continue cooking until the salmon is cooked through.
Serve:
- Once the salmon is cooked, transfer it to a serving platter or individual plates.
- Garnish the salmon with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Serve the honey garlic glazed salmon hot, alongside your favorite side dishes such as steamed vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
