Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, sriracha, grated ginger, minced garlic, and lime juice until smooth and well combined.
- Place the salmon fillets in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, seal the bag, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Remove the salmon from the marinade and discard the marinade. Season the fillets with salt and pepper. Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and has a nice char.
- Transfer the grilled salmon to a serving platter. Garnish with lime wedges and chopped fresh herbs, if desired.
