  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
  • 1/4 teaspoon blackening seasoning (optional)

Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil (or hemp seed oil)
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Pat salmon dry, then season with hemp hearts, salt, pepper, paprika and blackening seasoning (if using). Set aside.

Step 2

Adjust oven rack to middle position, then preheat broiler. 

Step 3

Add butter and oil to a large, oven-safe skillet over MED-HIGH heat. 

Step 4

Once butter is melted, add garlic, water, soy sauce, sriracha, honey and lemon juice and cook 30 seconds or so, until sauce is heated through.

Step 5

Add salmon, skin side down (if using salmon with skin), and cook 3 minutes.

Step 6

While salmon cooks, baste frequently with sauce from the pan by spooning it over the top of the salmon.

Step 7

Broil salmon for 5-6 minutes, basting with sauce once during the broil, until salmon is caramelized and cooked to desired doneness.

Step 8

Garnish with hemp hearts and minced parsley, if desired.
