Gochujang Honey Glazed Salmon

  • Author: Lilya
  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

A quick and impressive 20-minute dinner party dish featuring salmon fillets coated in a sticky, sweet, and spicy gochujang honey glaze, broiled to perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 to 2 pounds salmon fillets (center-cut, skin-on or skin-off)
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil (avocado or grapeseed)
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons gochujang paste
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon toasted white sesame seeds
  • 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to broil on high and position the rack 6 inches from the heating element.
  2. Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Place fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring they are not crowded.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together gochujang, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil until smooth.
  5. Brush a generous layer of glaze over the top of each salmon fillet.
  6. Broil for 5 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
  7. Remove from oven, brush with a second layer of glaze, and return to oven.
  8. Broil for another 3-5 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  9. Remove from oven, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
  10. Let rest for 2 minutes before serving with lime wedges.

Notes

Ensure salmon is completely dry before glazing to help the sauce stick. Watch the broiler closely as it can burn quickly. For a gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce. Leftovers can be reheated in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes.
