Easy Honey Glazed Salmon Bites Recipe


  • Author: Jasmine
  • Total Time: 27 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb fresh salmon fillet (skinless, cut into 1-inch cubes)
  • 3 tbsp honey (for the perfect sweetness)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (adds umami flavor)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (for a hint of tanginess)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced, for depth of flavor)
  • 1 tsp grated ginger (adds warmth and spice)
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper (for seasoning)
  • 1/4 tsp salt (to taste)
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Salmon

  1. Rinse the salmon fillet under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut the salmon into 1-inch cubes, ensuring they’re evenly sized for even cooking.

Step 2: Make the Honey Glaze

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, black pepper, and salt until well combined.

Step 3: Marinate the Salmon

  1. Place the salmon cubes in the bowl with the glaze and gently toss to coat. Let the salmon marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 30 minutes for deeper flavor).

Step 4: Cook the Salmon

  1. Oven Method: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the salmon bites in a single layer. Bake for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  2. Stovetop Method: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon bites and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, basting with the remaining glaze.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

  1. Transfer the cooked salmon bites to a serving plate. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and fresh herbs for garnish. Serve immediately.
