Honey Sriracha Salmon Flavorful and Easy Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 fillets salmon (6 oz each)
• 0.25 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• to taste salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (for garnish)
• 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
• lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger until well combined.
2. Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over them. Allow the salmon to marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor) in the refrigerator.
3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
4. Bake the Salmon: Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it skin-side down on a lined baking sheet. Pour the remaining marinade over the salmon.
5. Cook: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
6. Garnish and Serve: Once out of the oven, sprinkle the sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the salmon. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
