A flavorful dish combining salmon with a spicy honey garlic sauce, baked with fresh vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Tablespoon avocado oil
- 16 ounces salmon (remove skin, cut into 1-2″ cubes)
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup sriracha
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

- 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/4 cup vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon white sugar

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and coat it with avocado oil.
- Mix the honey, sriracha, garlic, salt, pepper, cayenne, and crushed red pepper to create the hot honey sauce.
- Lay cubed salmon about 1″ apart on one side of the pan and coat with 1/2 of the hot honey mixture.
