Ingredients:

  • 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets (170g each)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (15ml)
  • ¼ cup honey (85g)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce (45ml)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (15ml)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated (5g)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions:

  1. In a small mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Once the skillet is hot, place the salmon fillets skin-side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until the skin is crispy.
  5. Flip the salmon fillets and pour the honey soy glaze over them. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, spooning the glaze over the fillets to coat.
  6. Cook until salmon is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  7. Remove from heat and let rest for a minute before serving. Drizzle any remaining glaze from the skillet over the salmon.
