Spicy Honey Glazed Salmon

This spicy honey glazed salmon is my family’s favorite! It pairs perfectly with white rice (cauliflower rice), quinoa, noodles and steamed vegetables. Serving both together, you have a delicious and nutritious meal. “It just gets my eyes on it and I fall for it right after tasting it”, my sister commented on when she was invited to my home for dinner. As she is also a homemade food lover, she asked me for the recipe to make a good one of her own.

This salmon is WAY easier and quicker to cook than you think. The process lasts only 30 minutes, from start to finish. Salmon is spread with sriracha, seared on pan, then cooked with a good sauce of honey, lime juice, soy sauce, garlic and black pepper. The food is done when salmon is cooked through in the thicken (or caramelized) sauce. Coming out tasty and flavorful, this salmon promises to keep your taste buds satisfied. Believe us!
