Honey Glazed Sesame Ginger Salmon
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of honey, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, grated fresh ginger, and minced garlic.
- Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then brush the honey glaze over the top of each fillet, reserving some glaze for later.
- Preheat the broiler. Place the salmon fillets on a foil-lined baking sheet and broil for 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.
- While the salmon is broiling, heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds and toast for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant.
- Remove the salmon from the broiler and brush with the remaining honey glaze. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the top.
- Serve the honey glazed sesame ginger salmon immediately, and enjoy!
