Mouthwatering Honey Glazed Salmon Recipe

Today’s Delightful Creation: Honey Glazed Salmon with Coconut Quinoa

Hello, fellow food lovers! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that is both delicious and nutritious. This honey glazed salmon with coconut quinoa is the perfect dish for a cozy dinner at home or a special gathering with loved ones. The combination of sweet and savory flavors will surely tantalize your taste buds!

I start by marinating the salmon fillets in a mixture of honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. This adds a wonderful depth of flavor to the fish and helps to lock in moisture during cooking. While the salmon is marinating, I prepare the coconut quinoa by cooking the quinoa in coconut milk instead of water. This gives the quinoa a rich and creamy texture that pairs beautifully with the salmon.

Ingredients:

• salmon fillets (4 pieces)
• honey (60g)
• soy sauce (45ml)
• garlic (2 cloves, minced)
• ginger (1-inch piece, grated)
• quinoa (200g)
• coconut milk (400ml)
• green onions (for garnish)
• sesame seeds (for garnish)

Kitchen Tools:

• bowl
• whisk
• frying pan
• saucepan
• wooden spoon

Once the salmon has marinated for about 30 minutes, I cook it in a hot frying pan for a few minutes on each side until it is perfectly seared and cooked through. In the meantime, I fluff up the coconut quinoa with a fork and let it sit for a few minutes to absorb any remaining liquid.

To serve, I plate the coconut quinoa and top it with the succulent honey glazed salmon fillets. I sprinkle some sliced green onions and sesame seeds on top for added freshness and crunch. The combination of flavors and textures in this dish is truly a delight for the senses.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200g, with 4 servings. Each serving is about 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 400 calories per serving.

One tip to make this dish even more delicious is to squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice over the salmon just before serving. The acidity of the lemon brightens up the flavors and cuts through the richness of the honey glaze.

I hope you give this honey glazed salmon with coconut quinoa a try and enjoy it as much as I do! Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite herbs, spices, or toppings to make it your own. Happy cooking!
