Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 4 to 6 ounces salmon fillets (1 pound large fillet or 4-6 individual fillets, 4-6 ounce)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup hot sauce (Sriracha sauce)
  • 2 whole limes (one juiced, one for slicing)
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro (chopped)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with foil, grease lightly, and lay salmon on top. Season salmon with salt and pepper to taste. Slice one lime thinly, and slide the slices under the edges of the salmon.

  • Step 2: In a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat, melt butter. Stir in honey, sriracha sauce, juice of one lime (about 1 tablespoon), soy sauce, and garlic. Bring to a boil, the reduce to medium heat and cook for 3-4 minutes longer.

  • Step 3: Pour 2/3 of the sauce over the salmon (reserve remaining sauce for later) and use a spoon or spatula to make sure the sauce covers all of the salmon (you just don't want any "dry" spots). Fold the edges of the foil up around the salmon so the sauce doesn't spill out everywhere (the foil doesn't need to completely cover the salmon).

  • Step 4: Bake for 15 minutes, then switch to broil and cook another 4-5 minutes until the very edges of the salmon begin to char slightly - watch carefully so the whole salmon doesn't burn.

  • Step 5: Top salmon with reserved sauce, chopped cilantro and serve.
