Today’s Special: Spicy Honey Glazed Salmon

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m sharing a recipe for a delicious and flavorful dish that’s perfect for a cozy night in or a special dinner with loved ones. I was inspired to create this Spicy Honey Glazed Salmon by the changing seasons and the desire to add a little zest to a classic favorite.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • salmon fillets (4, 150g each)
  • honey (60g)
  • soy sauce (30ml)
  • sriracha (15g)
  • cayenne pepper (5g)
  • garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • ginger (1 tsp, grated)
  • olive oil (30ml)
  • salt and pepper to taste

In terms of kitchen tools, you’ll need:

  • baking sheet
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons

Start by preheating your oven to 200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the salmon fillets on top. In a mixing bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, sriracha, cayenne pepper, minced garlic, grated ginger, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined.

Pour the marinade over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let the salmon marinate for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse. Once marinated, place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve the Spicy Honey Glazed Salmon hot with your favorite side dishes or over a bed of mixed greens for a light and flavorful meal.

This recipe serves 4 people, with each serving weighing approximately 200g. One serving of this Spicy Honey Glazed Salmon is approximately 350 calories.

A clever tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some sesame seeds on top of the salmon before baking for an added crunch and nutty flavor. It’s a simple addition that takes this dish to the next level!

I hope you give this Spicy Honey Glazed Salmon a try and enjoy every bite. Feel free to customize the spice level to suit your taste preferences or add in additional ingredients like lemon zest for a citrusy twist. Have fun experimenting in the kitchen and happy cooking!
