Equipment

  • non-stick fry pan

Ingredients
  

Sauce

  • 4 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce all purpose or light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar or sub with any other vinegar except balsamic
  • 1 large garlic clove minced

Salmon

  • 2 fillets salmon or trout skinless, 6oz / 200g each

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Take salmon out of the fridge 20 minutes before cooking. Pat salmon skin dry with a paper towel and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk together the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Drizzle oil in a non stick fry pan and heat over medium high heat. 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.
  • 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. If Sauce thickens too much before your salmon is cooked to your taste, just add water 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • Remove onto serving plates.
  • Serve salmon drizzled with Sauce, sprinkled with sesame seeds and chives/shallots, if desired.

Notes

I like my salmon medium rare inside, not pale pink and fully cooked. The salmon will keep cooking for a minute after removing from the pan.
