If you’re looking for an easy and flavorful way to make salmon, look no further. These Honey Soy Sauce Glazed Salmon Bites make the perfect addition to any meal.
I love the idea of salmon in bite-sized form.
Something about it seems easier to cook, but also, it’s easier to add flavor to every single bite. And these little bites are definitely not lacking in flavor.
First, they’re marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, honey, sesame oil and sriracha. After that, they’re simply cooked on the stovetop.
While making them is easy, they come out so flavorful and delicious. Plus, the salmon gets juicy and tender without being overcooked. Ideal!
To make a complete meal out of this salmon, I recommend pairing it with rice and veggies. To make things super simple, try a frozen or minute rice that’ll come together in minutes.
For any veggies – I recommend greens like chopped broccoli and/or bok choy – simply add them to the pan when the salmon is done cooking. They’ll absorb the leftover marinade and become super flavorful. Cook them until they’re soft.
Lastly, I highly recommend serving with a dipping sauce. While these Honey Soy Sauce Glazed Salmon Bites are delicious on their own, everything is better with a sauce 🙂 I made a simple spicy mayo by mixing mayonnaise with a little bit of sriracha and honey.
If you want to double (or triple!) this Honey Soy Sauce Glazed Salmon Bites meal, just multiply the ingredients. It’s great to serve your family or meal prep ahead of time.

How to Make Honey Soy Sauce Glazed Salmon Bites
Make the marinade
Prepare your ingredients to make these Honey and Soy Sauce Glazed Salmon Bites. You’ll need soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, sriracha, salmon, olive oil, scallions and sesame seeds.
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, honey and sriracha. Whisk well until thoroughly combined.
Let the salmon marinate
Cut the salmon into 1-inch cubes and add to the bowl with the soy sauce and honey. Toss well to marinate. Place in the fridge and let marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Cook the salmon
Once the salmon has marinated, add olive oil to a pan over medium high heat. Once the pan is hot (you should be able to feel the heat with your hand just above the pan), add the salmon and cook for a few minutes on each side, turning as needed.
Garnish & serve
Once the salmon is about cooked through, pour the remaining marinade over the mixture and let thicken for a few minutes. Garnish Honey Soy Sauce Glazed Salmon Bites with chopped scallions and sesame seeds.

Ingredients You’ll Need
- Soy sauce: I usually opt for a low-sodium soy sauce. You can also use coconut aminos if preferred.
- Sesame oil: Sesame oil will add a little umami flavor to the salmon. If you don’t have any though, feel free to swap for olive oil.
- Honey: Important for sweetness! This is what gives the salmon a delicious sweet and savory flavor.
- Sriracha: For a spicier salmon, add more sriracha. I recommend going slowly so you don’t overpower with heat!
- Salmon: Cutting the salmon into small cubes is key – try to keep the bites similarly-sized so that they cook uniformly.
- Olive oil: You’ll use olive oil to cook the salmon in a nonstick pan.

I made this recipe with rice on the side mixed with steamed kale seasoned with black pepper, garlic salt, onion powder, smoked paprika & sodium free chicken bouillon.
Great recipe. Toasting the sesame seeds takes it to another level. Thank you!
