Description
Sweet and Savory Honey Garlic Salmon Bites
Ingredients
1 pound salmon fillet, skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces
¼ cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional garnish: Chopped green onions or sesame seeds
Instructions
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Mix well to create the glaze.
2. Season the Salmon: Cut the salmon into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Marinate: (Optional) Let the salmon sit in the glaze for 15-30 minutes to enhance flavor.
4. Cook the Salmon: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon bites in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes without moving them, allowing a nice crust to form.
5. Add Glaze: Flip the salmon bites and pour the honey garlic glaze over them. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, basting with the sauce until cooked through.
6. Serve: Remove from heat, garnish if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
For a twist, try adding a splash of sriracha to the glaze for a spicy kick.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
