Ingredients
  

For the Salmon
  • 1.5 lbs Salmon Fillet skinless, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tsp Salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper or to taste
For the Honey Garlic Glaze
  • 1/3 cup Honey
  • 1/4 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 4 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp Water

Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 2 Mixing Bowls

Method
 

  1. Pat the salmon fillet completely dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch cubes and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, low-sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, and lemon juice. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Set aside.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon cubes in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through.
  4. Turn the heat to low. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the salmon. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring gently, until the sauce thickens and coats every piece. Serve immediately.
