  • Salt & black pepper, to taste
  • Sesame seeds & green onions, for garnish (optional)

For the Honey Soy Glaze:

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar (or lemon juice)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

2. Sear the Salmon

  • Pat the salmon fillets dry and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Place the salmon skin-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the edges start turning opaque.

3. Glaze & Cook

  • Flip the salmon and pour the honey soy glaze over the fillets.
  • Reduce heat to medium and cook for another 3-4 minutes, spooning the sauce over the salmon as it thickens.

4. Serve & Garnish

  • Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.
  • Serve over steamed rice, quinoa, or sautéed veggies.
