  • Cuisine: Fusion

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 (6-oz) salmon fillets, skin-on or skinless, patted dry
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp hot honey (honey mixed with chili flakes or store-bought)
  • Lemon slices for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the salmon glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 Tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp red pepper flakes. Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
  2. Cook salmon: Heat 2 Tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon skin-side up, cook 2 minutes until seared. Flip, add remaining 1 Tbsp oil and minced garlic, cook 1 minute. Pour in honey mixture and lemon slices, baste salmon and cook until sauce reduces by one-third, about 3 minutes.
  3. Prepare Brussels sprouts: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss Brussels sprouts with 1 Tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast 20-25 minutes until crispy. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar and toss to coat in the last 2 minutes.
  4. Cook sweet potatoes: Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork, bake at 425°F for 45-50 minutes until tender. Mix softened butter with 1 tsp cinnamon. Split potatoes, top with cinnamon butter and drizzle with hot honey.

Notes

Use skin-on salmon for crispier results; broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra caramelization. Adjust hot honey spice level to taste. Prep vegetables while salmon cooks to save time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I prepare any components of this honey garlic glazed salmon meal ahead of time?

Yes, you can streamline your cooking. Prepare the honey garlic glaze and the cinnamon butter a day in advance and store them in the refrigerator. You can also trim the Brussels sprouts and cube the sweet potato ahead to save time when you start cooking.

What is the best way to ensure my salmon gets a nice glaze without overcooking?

Pat the salmon fillets dry before cooking to help the honey garlic glaze adhere. Cook the salmon skin-side down first to crisp the skin, then brush with the glaze during the last few minutes of cooking under a broiler for a perfect, caramelized finish without drying out the fish.

Can I substitute another vegetable for the Brussels sprouts in this recipe?

Absolutely. While the balsamic glaze complements the Brussels sprouts beautifully, you can use asparagus or broccoli. Toss them in the same balsamic glaze and roast until tender to complete your meal with honey garlic glazed salmon and a sweet potato.
