Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound salmon fillet, skinless, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional garnish: Chopped green onions or sesame seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Mix well to create the glaze.
- Season the Salmon: Cut the salmon into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
- Marinate: (Optional) Let the salmon sit in the glaze for 15-30 minutes to enhance flavor.
- Cook the Salmon: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon bites in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes without moving them, allowing a nice crust to form.

- Serve: Remove from heat, garnish if desired, and serve warm.
