Instructions:
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, vinegar, chili sauce, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Whisk together until the honey is fully dissolved and the marinade is well mixed.
- Place the salmon fillet in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
- Pour the prepared marinade over the salmon, ensuring that the fish is evenly coated.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap or seal the bag, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the fish. For best results, marinate for up to 2 hours.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easier cleanup.
- Lightly grease the foil or paper with the sesame oil to prevent the salmon from sticking.
- Remove the salmon from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off, and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Discard the leftover marinade.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillet.
- Once done, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
- Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired.
- Transfer the salmon to a serving plate. Enjoy your Honey Sriracha Salmon with your choice of sides, like steamed rice or sautéed vegetables.
Tips:
- Make sure to preheat your oven or grill before cooking the salmon to ensure even cooking.
- Marinate the salmon for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the fish.
