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
- Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, and black pepper until smooth and well blended.
- Heat Glaze: Pour the mixture into a pan and heat it over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the glaze thickens slightly and becomes glossy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Apply Glaze to Salmon: Brush the warm glaze generously over cooked or searing salmon fillets, ensuring an even coating for maximum flavor.
- Cook Salmon: Continue cooking the salmon in the pan or transfer it to the oven, allowing the glaze to caramelize and the salmon to cook through completely, about 5-7 minutes depending on thickness.
- Serve: Once the salmon is caramelized and fully cooked, remove from heat and serve immediately for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Apply the glaze during the last few minutes of cooking to avoid burning the honey.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey according to your preference.
- This glaze pairs well with both grilled and baked salmon preparations.
