Ingredients
Glaze Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, and black pepper until fully combined.
- Heat the glaze: Pour the mixture into a pan and heat it over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it slightly thickens and becomes glossy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Apply glaze to salmon: Brush the warm glaze over cooked or searing salmon fillets to coat them evenly.
- Cook salmon: Place the salmon in a pan or oven and cook until the glaze caramelizes and the salmon is fully cooked through, which typically takes about 7-10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Serve: Remove the salmon from heat and serve immediately, garnished as desired.
Notes
- Apply the glaze during the last minutes of cooking to prevent it from burning.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey according to taste preference.
- This glaze pairs well with salmon cooked by grilling or baking as well as pan-searing.
