Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 pound salmon (skin-on)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (preferably low sodium)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 pinch cayenne (red) pepper
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place salmon skin side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cut several long (shallow) slits in the top of the salmon.
  2. Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, toasted sesame seeds, garlic, cayenne pepper, and salt until thoroughly combined. Brush over top of the salmon being sure to push some down into the slits. It's okay if some of the sauce pools onto the baking sheet.
  3. Bake until no longer (or just barely) translucent in the middle, depending on how done you like it and how thick the fish is, 10 to 15 minutes.
  4. Spoon any sauce back on top that has collected on the baking sheet. Serve with whole-grain ramen and veggies or over a salad. The fish will flake right off the skin when ready to eat.
