Harissa Glazed Salmon Recipe
This 5-ingredient Harissa Glazed Salmon recipe is flaky and has the best sweet heat sauce with harissa paste and honey, pan-seared in 10 minutes!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- ¼ cup harissa
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 (6-ounce) skinless salmon fillets preferably center cut
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Rice for serving
- Parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together the harissa, honey and lemon juice.
- Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottom pan over medium heat. Season the salmon filets on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Add the salmon to the pan and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3-4 minutes. Flip the salmon and pour in the harissa-honey sauce. Cook, spooning the sauce over the salmon, until the salmon is glazed and reaches your desired temperature (about 2 more minutes to reach 125° for medium-rare).
- Transfer the salmon to a large plate, spooning any remaining sauce out of the pan and over the salmon. Serve with rice and parsley, if desired.
Notes
My Top Tip: Use a hot skillet. Before adding the salmon, heat the skillet up to medium-high heat with oil. This will crisp up the flesh and sear it perfectly.
Storage: This salmon is best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers will keep in the fridge up to 3 days. To reheat, simply cook in a skillet over low heat until warmed through. You can also reheat in the oven or air fryer at 200°F until warm.
