Harissa Glazed Salmon Recipe
Prep 5 min Cook 8 min Serves 4 Source

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)

Steps

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, stir together the harissa, honey and lemon juice.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottom pan over medium heat. Season the salmon filets on both sides with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    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).

  4. 4

    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.
