Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb salmon - 3 to 4 filets
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp ground black pepper
  • ½ tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

Instructions

  • Pat filets of salmon dry with a paper towel. Mix salt, garlic powder and pepper together. Season the flesh side of the salmon with the seasoning mixture.
  • Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Place the salmon in the warm oil with the skin side up. 
  • Sear the filets for 5 minutes in the pan and do not move them. While they are cooking whisk together the honey, soy sauce and rice vinegar.
  • Flip the filets so that the skin side is down and reduce the heat to low.
  • Pour the sauce in the pan and continuously spoon the sauce over top of the filets for another 3 minutes or until the salmon feels firm. Serve with any extra sauce spooned over top.

Notes

  • You can use any other type of fish that you like or even shrimp - this recipe is great with steelhead trout
  • Replace soy sauce with coconut aminos to make this recipe gluten free
  • Store in the fridge for up to 3 days - reheat in the air fryer, toaster oven, microwave or on stove top until just warmed through
