Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (skin-on)
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Chopped green onions, for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse salmon fillets under cold water and pat completely dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, mix honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic to make the glaze.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Place salmon skin-side down and cook undisturbed for about 4 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy.
- Flip the salmon fillets and brush half the glaze over the tops.
- Cook for another 3–4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Drizzle remaining glaze over the cooked salmon and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Notes
- Use skin-on fillets for best crispiness and moisture retention.
- For added spice, mix red pepper flakes into the glaze.
- Try maple syrup instead of honey for a deeper sweetness.
- Sesame oil can be added for an extra layer of flavor.
