Instructions

Make Marinade: In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and sriracha.
Marinate Salmon: Place salmon cubes in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Toss to coat and marinate for 30 minutes (optional).
Sear Salmon: Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add salmon cubes (skin-side down, if applicable) and sear for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through.
Add Sauce: Pour any remaining marinade into the skillet and toss to coat the salmon.
Serve: Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

If you don’t have time to marinate the salmon, you can skip this step and proceed directly to cooking.
For a crispier exterior, you can pat the salmon dry with paper towels before searing.
Serve with your favorite sides, such as rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables.
