Equipment
- oven-safe skillet
Ingredients
SALMON
- 4 filets salmon 6 oz each
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika or regular paprika
- ¼ teaspoon blackening seasoning optional
SAUCE
- 3 tablespoon butter
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- ½ cup honey
- 3 tablespoon water
- 3 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Instructions
- Pat salmon dry, then season with salt, pepper, paprika and blackening seasoning (if using). Set aside.
- IMPORTANT: Adjust oven rack to middle position, then preheat broiler. If you broil this with the rack up high the sauce will burn.
- Add butter and oil to a large, oven-safe skillet over MED-HIGH heat. Once butter is melted, add garlic, water, soy sauce, sriracha, honey and lemon juice and cook 30 seconds or so, until sauce is heated through.
- Add salmon, skin side down (if using salmon with skin), and cook 3 minutes. While salmon cooks, baste frequently with sauce from the pan by spooning it over the top of the salmon.
- Broil salmon for 5-6 minutes, basting with sauce once during the broil, until salmon is caramelized and cooked to desired doneness.
- Garnish with minced parsley if desired.
Notes
For a different technique, you can pan sear the salmon before adding the sauce for a variation in texture.
