It’s pretty darn hard to find a salmon recipe that will please a crowd but this sweet n spicy honey-baked salmon does the job every time! I’ve made it several times and even when I don’t have all of the ingredients it still somehow manages to come out fabulous. Don’t you just love a forgiving recipe?
This salmon is full flavored and has the perfect balance of being slightly sweet and slightly spicy, just the way we like it around here. Even my toddler can handle the kick of flavors.
Oh, and don’t you go letting all those ingredients scare you. It’s a pretty simple recipe and so worth it, in the end, you’ll see.

HELLO,
I RECENTLY MADE YOUR RED VELVET CAKE AND IT WAS THE BOMB. DO YOU HAVE A RECIPE FOR HOMEMADE LEMON CAKE??
OR STRAWBERRY CAKE?
What’s good to pair with this?
Yaaaaaassss! Last week Hubby said ” You know I really don’t like Salmon” Today, “Babe you gotta make that Salmon again can we have it for dinner tonight?” It was good! Thanks Diva Monique
We have made this three times now and it is delicious. You can actually double the soy sauce and it is still great, although you may want to boost the peppers to keep the spice up. Great recipe.
