How to Make Easy Glazed Grilled Salmon

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar until smooth.
  2. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the glaze to a separate small bowl.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon rice vinegar to the reserved tablespoon of glaze and whisk to combine.
  4. Brush one side of the salmon steaks generously with half of the glaze from the medium bowl. Place the salmon steaks, glazed side down, on a preheated grill.
  5. Grill for 4 minutes, or until the glaze is slightly charred.
  6. Brush the top side of the salmon steaks with the remaining glaze from the medium bowl.
  7. Flip the salmon steaks and grill for another 5 minutes, or until the second side is slightly charred and the salmon is opaque in the center.
  8. Transfer the salmon to plates and drizzle the reserved glaze (with rice vinegar) over the salmon before serving. Enjoy!
  9. (Optional) Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped green onions for extra visual appeal and flavor.
