  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce (or tamari), sriracha, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
    1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup sriracha, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 garlic clove minced, 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
  2. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.

  3. Heat the olive oil or sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the salmon fillets into the skillet, skin-side down if using skin-on fillets.

  4. Sear the salmon for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness, until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time will vary, so keep an eye on it to achieve your desired doneness.

  5. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, pour about half of the prepared Honey Sriracha sauce over the salmon fillets in the skillet. Allow the sauce to bubble and thicken, coating the salmon beautifully. Reserve the remaining sauce for serving.
