1 tsp soy sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
For the salmon:
4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)

Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
Lime wedges
Directions
Make the chili mango glaze
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine mango, honey, sriracha, lime juice, soy sauce, and garlic.
Cook for 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened. Blend if you want a smooth glaze. Set aside.
Prepare the salmon
Pat salmon fillets dry and season with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Cook the salmon
Place salmon fillets skin-side down (if skin-on) and sear 4–5 minutes.
Flip salmon and brush generously with chili mango glaze. Cook another 3–4 minutes until salmon is cooked through and glaze is caramelized.
Serve
Plate salmon and drizzle extra glaze on top.
Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley and lime wedges.

Serve with steamed jasmine rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables for a complete tropical-inspired meal.
