These Honey Butter Garlic Salmon Bites are pure bite-sized heaven! Tender, juicy salmon coated in a sticky, garlicky glaze that’s sweet, buttery, and full of flavor. Perfect for a quick dinner or an impressive appetizer!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. salmon fillets cut into bite-sized cubes
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp honey
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or chives
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions:
Sear the Salmon: Season the salmon bites with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Sear the salmon bites on each side for about 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Glaze: In the same skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in honey, soy sauce, and lemon juice, simmering for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Glaze the Salmon: Add the salmon bites back into the skillet, tossing them gently to coat with the sauce. Cook for an additional minute to let the glaze seep into the salmon.
Garnish & Serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley or chives and serve immediately. These are perfect over rice, with a side of veggies, or as an appetizer!
