Equipment

Ingredients
Sauce
- 4 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce all purpose or light soy sauce

Instructions
Preparation
- Take salmon out of the fridge 20 minutes before cooking. Pat salmon skin dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Whisk together the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
- Drizzle oil in a non-stick fry pan and heat over medium high heat. Place salmon in the pan, and cook the first side for 3 – 4 minutes until golden. Turn, then cook the other side for 2 – 3 minutes or until golden.
- Pour Sauce over salmon. Cook for 1 minute or until it starts to thicken slightly. Check the side of the salmon to tell how cooked through the middle is.
- Remove onto serving plates.
- Serve salmon drizzled with Sauce, sprinkled with sesame seeds and chives/shallots, if desired.
Notes
I tell how cooked a salmon is by eye, looking at the side of the salmon. The salmon will keep cooking for a minute after removing from the pan.
