Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound salmon fillets (skinless, boneless)
  • 1/4 cup hot honey (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

Preparation

  • Start by cutting the salmon fillets into bite-sized cubes, roughly 1-inch pieces.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the hot honey, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Stir until well-combined.
  • Gently toss in the salmon cubes, ensuring each piece is coated. Let the salmon marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Cooking

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the marinated salmon bites in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Serving

  • Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the salmon bites and serve immediately.

Notes

Serve with fluffy jasmine rice, sautéed greens, or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a unique flavor experience. Consider substituting salmon with trout or chicken for different variations.
