Prep: 5 min · Cook: 12 min · Total: 17 min · Serves 4

Ingredients

• 4 (6 oz each) Salmon fillets, skin-on
• 3 tbsp Honey
• 2 tbsp Soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Fresh ginger, grated
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
• 1 tsp Sesame oil
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tbsp Sesame seeds
• 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
• to taste Salt
• to taste Black pepper

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to make the glaze.
2. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
3. Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the pan. Press gently with a spatula for 30 seconds to prevent curling. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
5. Flip the fillets and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the salmon is nearly cooked through.
6. Pour the honey glaze over the salmon. Reduce heat to medium and spoon the sauce over the fillets continuously for 2 minutes as it thickens and coats the fish.
7. Once the glaze is sticky and glossy, remove from heat. Transfer to plates and spoon any remaining sauce from the pan over the fillets.
8. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately.
