Description
Delicious bite-sized salmon treats coated in a sweet and spicy chili honey glaze, perfect for appetizers or meals.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb salmon fillet
- 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chives or green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven heats, cut the salmon fillet into bite-sized pieces, ensuring each piece is similar in size for even cooking.
- In a bowl, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, honey, soy sauce, and olive oil. This mixture will become the sauce that gives your salmon bites their delicious flavor.
- Toss the salmon bites in the sauce until they are well coated. Ensure each piece gets a generous layer of the sweet and spicy goodness, bringing out the best in the salmon.
- Place the salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adding just the right amount of seasoning.
- Bake in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The high heat helps caramelize the sauce, enhancing the flavors further.
- Once out of the oven, garnish with chopped chives or green onions before serving. This final touch adds a fresh flavor and brightens up the dish’s appearance.
Notes
For added crunch, broil the salmon bites for the last 2-3 minutes. You can substitute sweet chili sauce with sriracha for a spicier kick.
