Glossy, glazed, absurdly easy salmon that pretends it took effort. Fifteen minutes, four ingredients, one pan. Salmon is cheaper than chicken in some weeks โ€” catch the sale.

What You Need

Serves
4
  • 4 salmon filets, skin-on, 6oz each
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced

How to Make It

  1. 1

    Whisk honey, soy, and garlic with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl.

  2. 2

    Heat a skillet over medium-high with a tablespoon of oil. Pat salmon dry, season with salt, and sear skin-side up for 4 minutes. Flip and cook 3 more minutes.

  3. 3

    Pour the sauce around (not on) the salmon. Let it bubble and reduce for 90 seconds, spooning the glaze over the tops until lacquered. Serve with rice and a crown of scallions.
