How to Make Glazed Grilled Salmon Fillets

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil.
  3. Place the salmon fillets in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes for maximum flavor.
  4. Remove salmon from marinade and discard the marinade.
  5. Place the salmon fillets on the preheated grill grates. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. During the last minute of grilling, brush the salmon with the glaze (reserved from the marinade).
  7. Remove from grill and let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions (optional).
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
