Description
Tender salmon fillets glazed with a sweet and spicy hot honey sauce, ready in just 25 minutes for a quick and flavorful dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each, skin-on or skinless)
- 1/3 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot or Sriracha)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
- Sliced green onions and sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place skin-side down on prepared baking sheet. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, hot sauce, soy sauce, lemon juice, and olive oil. Stir and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened, then remove from heat.
- Brush half of the hot honey glaze over the top of the salmon fillets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until salmon easily flakes with a fork and reaches 125-130°F internal temperature. During the last 2 minutes, broil on high for extra caramelization if desired.
- Remove from oven and brush with remaining hot honey glaze.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, then serve immediately.
