Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 4 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (all purpose or light soy sauce)
- 1 tbsp white vinegar ((or sub with any other vinegar except balsamic))
- 1 large garlic clove (or 2 small) (, minced)
- 2 salmon or trout fillets, skinless ((6oz / 200g each))
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Sesame seeds
- Finely sliced chives or shallots/scallions
Instructions
- 1
Take salmon out of the fridge 20 minutes before cooking. Pat salmon skin dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- 2
Whisk together the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
- 3
Drizzle oil in a non stick fry pan and heat over medium high heat (or just under, if your stove runs hot). Place salmon in the pan, and cook the first side for 3 - 4 minutes until golden. Turn, then cook the other side for 2 - 3 minutes or until golden.
- 4
Pour Sauce over salmon. Cook for 1 minute or until it starts to thicken slightly. Check the side of the salmon to tell how cooked through the middle is - I like mine medium rare inside. (Note 1). If Sauce thickens too much before your salmon is cooked to your taste, just add water 1 tbsp at a time.

Remove onto serving plates.

Serve salmon drizzled with Sauce, sprinkled with sesame seeds and chives/shallots, if desired.
