Ingredients
– 1 pound salmon (fresh or previously frozen, with skin removed and cut into 1-inch cubes)
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon paprika
– 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
– 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
– 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
– 1 tablespoon coconut oil (or alternatives such as olive oil, avocado oil, canola oil, or vegetable oil)
– 1/4 cup honey (plain or hot honey for a spicy option)
– 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
– 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon sriracha (adjust amount to control heat level)
Instructions
1-In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon onion powder; set aside.
2-In a separate bowl or measuring cup, mix 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 2 cloves minced fresh garlic, and 1 teaspoon sriracha. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon coconut oil once hot.
3-Cut 1 pound salmon into 1-inch cubes after removing the skin, then gently toss the cubes with the spice blend to coat evenly. Place the salmon pieces in a single layer in the skillet and cook for 1 minute. Flip the salmon, pour the honey garlic sauce over the pieces, and cook for 1 minute.
4-Stir gently to coat the salmon in the glaze and cook for another 60 to 90 seconds to thicken the sauce. Remove from heat and let the salmon rest in the skillet for 2 to 3 minutes before serving. Optionally, garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions for extra flair. With a prep time of about 10 minutes and cook time of around 5 minutes, this recipe is perfect for weeknight meals.
