Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)

3 tablespoons honey

3 tablespoons Sriracha sauce

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

Salt and pepper, to taste

Chopped green onions, for garnish

Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the honey, Sriracha sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger until well combined.

    Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring the fillets are well coated. Cover or seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 1-2 hours for enhanced flavor.

      Preheat the Grill/Oven: If grilling, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using an oven, preheat it to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

        Prepare Salmon for Cooking: Remove the salmon from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Sprinkle both sides lightly with salt and pepper.

          Cook the Salmon:

            - Grilling: Place the salmon on the grill skin-side down. Grill for about 4-6 minutes per side, brushing occasionally with the reserved marinade, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

              - Baking: Place the fillets on the lined baking sheet. Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily. You can broil for the last 2-3 minutes for a caramelized finish.

                Serve: Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill/oven. Drizzle with any remaining glaze from the marinade if desired. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for added texture and flavor.

                  Enjoy! Serve with steamed rice, stir-fried vegetables, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
