Honey Garlic Salmon

Honey Garlic Salmon

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 tbsp honey

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp white vinegar

  • 1 large or 2 small garlic cloves

  • 2 salmon fillets

  • Olive Oil

  • Salt and pepper

  • Sesame seeds

  • Finely sliced chives or shallots 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Take salmon out of the fridge 20 minutes before cooking. Pat salmon skin dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  2. Whisk together the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.

  3. Drizzle oil in a non-stick fry pan and heat over medium high heat (or just under, if your stove runs hot). Place salmon in the pan, and cook the first side for 3 - 4 minutes until golden. Turn, then cook the other side for 2 - 3 minutes or until golden.

  4. Pour Sauce over salmon. Cook for 1 minute or until it starts to thicken slightly. Check the side of the salmon to tell how cooked through the middle is - I like mine medium rare inside. (Note 1). If Sauce thickens too much before your salmon is cooked to your taste, just add water 1 tbsp at a time.

  5. Remove onto serving plates.

  6. Serve salmon drizzled with Sauce, sprinkled with sesame seeds and chives/shallots, if desired.
