Honey Ginger Glazed Salmon

Ingredients

4 servings
|
  • 1/4 cup
    Honey natural or Maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp
    Soy sauce low-sodium or Tamari
  • 1 tsp
    Ginger fresh or Ground ginger
  • 1 clove
    Garlic minced or Garlic powder
  • 4 fillet
    Salmon fresh or Trout
  • Salt fine or Sea salt
  • Black pepper freshly ground or White pepper

Instructions

1

Preheat your broiler to high and prepare a broiler pan by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray.

Ensure the broiler pan is positioned about 6 inches from the heat source for even cooking.

2

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic to create the glaze.

Mix the glaze thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined for a consistent flavor.

3

Season the salmon fillets lightly with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel before seasoning to help the glaze adhere better.

Ingredients needed for this step

4

Place the salmon fillets on the prepared broiler pan and brush the glaze generously over the top of each fillet.

Apply the glaze in layers for a richer flavor, allowing it to slightly soak in between applications.

5

Broil the salmon for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the glaze is caramelized.

Keep an eye on the salmon to prevent overcooking; it should flake easily with a fork when done.

6

Serve the salmon hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired, alongside a fresh salad or steamed vegetables.

For a complete meal, pair the salmon with a side of quinoa or wild rice.
