Instructions

Make the glaze

Whisk together honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and sriracha. Set aside half for serving (do not contaminate with raw fish).

Season the salmon

Pat fillets dry. Brush skin side with oil. Brush flesh side with some of the glaze.

Grill skin-side first

Place salmon skin-side down on a well-oiled grill over medium heat (375°F). Close the lid and cook for 6-7 minutes until the skin is crispy and releases easily from the grate.
