Crispy Honey Garlic Chipotle Salmon

Slightly spicy, slightly sweet and absolutely delicious, this Honey Chipotle Salmon is making the weeknight rounds over here. This ridiculously easy salmon recipe will even get non-salmon lovers INTO it. It’s that good.

The meal comes together really quick and easy. Start by mixing the honey and spices in a small bowl. Place the salmon on a plate, in a container or in a zipped-top bag and use half of the glaze to either brush over the salmon or pour over the salmon. Let the salmon marinate for about 15 minutes. No worries if you’re short on time, the salmon will still be plenty flavorful.
