Easy Honey Garlic Salmon Bites
These tender salmon bites are coated in a sticky honey garlic sauce that hits the spot every single time.
enzo81.xyzIf you are looking for a quick dinner that still feels special, this recipe is a total winner. The salmon turns out tender on the inside while the edges get a perfect golden sear, making them impossible to stop eating.
My biggest tip is to make sure your pan is hot before adding the fish. This helps you get that lovely caramelized glaze without overcooking the salmon. It really is the best way to get a restaurant quality meal in your own kitchen.

Tips
These bites taste best served over steamed white rice or roasted broccoli. If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days and gently reheat them in a pan.
