How to Make Ginger Honey Glaze For Salmon Or Chicken

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened slightly and coats the back of a spoon.
  3. While the glaze simmers, prepare your protein of choice (salmon, chicken, pork, turkey, or tofu). Grill, bake, or pan-fry until nearly cooked through.
  4. Brush the glaze generously over the protein, turning to coat both sides. Continue grilling/cooking until the protein is fully cooked and the glaze is caramelized.
  5. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Store leftover glaze in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
