Honey-Sriracha Glazed Salmon is a quick, flavorful dish featuring tender salmon coated in a sticky, sweet-and-spicy glaze made from honey, sriracha, soy sauce, and lime juice. It’s perfect for weeknights or entertaining.

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets (skin-on or skinless)
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp sriracha sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Green onions or sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha, soy sauce, lime juice, and minced garlic to create the glaze.
  2. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down (if using skin-on) and cook for 3–4 minutes until the skin is crispy and the bottom is golden.
  5. Flip the salmon and pour the glaze over the fillets.
  6. Cook for another 3–4 minutes, occasionally spooning the glaze over the salmon as it thickens and caramelizes.
  7. Once the salmon is cooked through and coated in the glaze, remove from heat.
  8. Garnish with green onions or sesame seeds if desired and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust sriracha for desired spice level.
  • Use tamari or gluten-free soy sauce for a gluten-free version.
  • The glaze can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 3 days.
  • Bake instead of pan-searing for a hands-off cooking option.
  • Use fresh salmon for best texture, or thaw frozen fillets fully before cooking.
