Ingredients
  

1 pound fresh salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into bite-sized pieces

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

3 tablespoons honey

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free version)

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

Salt and black pepper to taste

2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon bites dry with paper towels and season them with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

    Make the Glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

      Add Sweetness: Stir in the honey and soy sauce into the melted butter and garlic mixture. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly, stirring frequently.

        Cook the Salmon: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the glazed sauce mixture. Carefully place the salmon bites in the skillet, ensuring they don't overcrowd the pan.

          Glaze the Salmon: Cook the salmon bites for about 3-4 minutes on each side, gently spooning the glaze over the top while they cook. This will add flavor and create a beautiful sheen.

            Caramelize: Allow the salmon bites to cook in the glaze for an additional 1-2 minutes after flipping, until they are cooked through and caramelized.

              Serve: Once done, remove the salmon from the skillet and place them on a serving platter. Drizzle any remaining glaze from the skillet over the top.

                Garnish: Sprinkle sliced green onions and sesame seeds over the glazed salmon for an added crunch and color.
