Yield:
1 4-pound fillet

Ingredients

  • heavy-duty aluminum foil

  • ½ cup honey

  • 8 cloves garlic, minced

  • 4 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil

  • 2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger

  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce

  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 1 (4 pound) salmon fillet

  • 4 stalks green onion, thinly sliced

  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty foil.

  2. Whisk honey, garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, Sriracha, and pepper together in a bowl.

  3. Place salmon on the prepared baking sheet and fold up the sides of the foil. Spoon the honey mixture over the salmon. Cover with another sheet of foil and crimp edges to seal.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn on the broiler.

  5. Remove the top piece of foil and broil until caramelized and slightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes.

  6. Garnish with green onion and sesame seeds.
