Prep: 15 minutes. Cook: 20 minutes.
Serves 4.
Ingredients
- 4 (6 oz each) salmon fillets
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1.5 tbsp sriracha
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger
- 1 bunch asparagus
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Step 1: Pat salmon fillets dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk honey, sriracha, soy sauce, and 1 tbsp minced ginger. Set aside.
- Step 2: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Trim asparagus ends, then toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp minced ginger, and a pinch of salt. Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Step 3: Roast asparagus for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred. While asparagus cooks, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high. Place salmon skin-side down, cook for 4 minutes until crispy.
- Step 4: Flip salmon, brush with half the honey-sriracha glaze, and cook for 4-5 minutes more until internal temperature reaches 125°F (52°C) for medium. Brush remaining glaze over salmon, then serve immediately with roasted asparagus and lemon wedges.
