Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon Bites

Tender salmon bites glazed in honey and garlic, served golden and savory for an easy, flavorful meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 450 g salmon fillet, cut into 2.5 cm cubes
  • 1.25 ml fine sea salt
  • 1.25 ml freshly ground black pepper
  • 5 ml garlic powder
  • 2.5 ml onion powder
  • 2.5 ml Italian seasoning
  • 2.5 ml smoked paprika
  • 1.25 ml chili powder
  • 60 ml extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 80 ml low sodium soy sauce
  • 3 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 15 ml unsalted butter
  • 15 ml fresh lemon juice
  • 45 ml honey
  • Fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Combine salmon cubes with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, chili powder, and 30 ml of olive oil. Toss well to evenly coat the fish.
  2. Heat the remaining 30 ml olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned salmon cubes in a single layer. Cook for 4-5 minutes, rotating to brown all sides. Transfer the seared fish to a plate and set aside.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Add butter and minced garlic to the same skillet. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in honey and soy sauce, stirring well. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Add lemon juice and cook for an additional minute until the sauce slightly thickens.
  5. Return the salmon cubes to the pan. Toss to coat evenly in the glaze. Warm through for 1-2 minutes, ensuring the pieces are glazed and heated throughout.
  6. Transfer the glazed salmon bites to a serving platter. Sprinkle generously with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately, optionally accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes.

Notes

To keep the cubes intact, avoid over-stirring while searing. For even browning, use a heavy-bottomed pan and do not overcrowd.
