Ingredients

Scale

Main 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

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels to ensure the skin crisps up nicely during cooking.
  2. Make the Honey Garlic Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic until well combined to create a flavorful glaze.
  3. Sear the Salmon: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down and cook for about 4 minutes until the skin turns golden brown and crispy.
  4. Glaze and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the salmon fillets over. Brush half of the honey garlic glaze generously over the tops. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F).
  5. Serve and Garnish: Drizzle the remaining glaze over the salmon fillets and garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh and vibrant finish.

Notes

  • Patting the salmon dry is essential for getting crispy skin.
  • Use low-sodium soy sauce to control the saltiness of the glaze.
  • To check doneness, the salmon should flake easily and have an internal temperature of 145°F.
  • Serve with steamed rice or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
  • This recipe can be adapted with other types of fish but cooking times may vary.
