  2. In a bowl, whisk together honey and sriracha sauce.
  3. Place salmon fillets on a baking sheet, skin-side down, and brush the honey-sriracha mixture on top.
  4. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through.
  6. Optional: Broil for the last 1–2 minutes for a caramelized finish.
Assembling the bowls

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to avoid drying out. Make the honey-sriracha glaze ahead and use it for a week.
