Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh salmon, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven or Skillet: If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C). Alternatively, you can cook the bites in a skillet on medium-high heat.
- Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon bites dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Cook the Salmon: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (or bake on a baking sheet for 10-12 minutes in the oven).
- Make the Hot Honey Sauce: While the salmon cooks, combine honey, hot sauce, soy sauce, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until it starts to simmer and thicken slightly (about 2-3 minutes).
- Toss in the Sauce: Once the salmon bites are cooked, toss them in the hot honey sauce, making sure each piece is well-coated.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy the sweet, spicy flavor with your favorite side dishes or as an appetizer!
Notes
- Adjust the heat level by varying the amount of hot sauce used.
- You can also bake the salmon bites for a healthier option.
- These bites pair perfectly with a side of rice, veggies, or a refreshing salad.
