Equipment

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce or tamari (if gluten free)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp grated ginger
  • ¼ tsp Sriracha hot chili sauce or other hot sauce (optional)
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, preferably wild Alaskan salmon
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • Sliced scallions for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Whisk the soy sauce, honey, mustard, ginger and Sriracha together in a bowl.
  • Heat the oil in a large oven-safe saute pan over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and add them to the pan, presentation side down. Cook 2-3 minutes without moving, until a golden crust forms. Turn the fillets over and transfer the pan to the oven. Cook 5-6 minutes until salmon is just cooked through but still slightly pink in the middle. Carefully remove the pan from the oven and transfer the salmon to a platter.
  • Pour off the drippings from the pan and heat the pan on the stove over medium high heat. Add the soy sauce mixture to the pan and cook 2-3 minutes until thickened. Pour the glaze over the salmon. Garnish with scallions if desired.
