If you’re into sweet and spicy sauces, you’re going to love this Thai glazed salmon. It’s incredibly easy to make, and it scales just as well for one person as it does for six, which makes it a great go-to for a weekday dinner when you don’t want to overthink things.
You already know I love Thai food, and pairing those flavors with salmon turns out to be an absolutely perfect match. The sweetness in the glaze plays beautifully against the richness of the fish, with just enough heat to keep things interesting.
Give it a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
