This recipe is easy enough for a weeknight meal; make the glaze, broil the salmon, brush the glaze over, and it's done!
To make the glaze I combined soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic paste, ginger paste and imitation honey. Here are some low carb honey options – including a homemade recipe!
How to Make Low Carb and Keto Glazed Salmon
As mentioned above, you'll need to choose your honey alternative. I use HoneyTree because the amount used was under the serving suggestion, and that small amount of maltitol doesn't affect me. Add it to a small saucepan together with some soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic paste, and ginger paste. Bring to the boil and let bubble for 5 minutes or until it has reduced and thickened.
Meanwhile, place the salmon onto a lined baking sheet. I prefer to keep the skin on for ease of moving the salmon after cooking! Season well with salt and pepper.
Place under a pre-heated broiler, about 6″ from the heat. Cook until almost done, about 8-10 minutes depending on thickness of the fish and personal preference. The center should be at least 145F.
Brush the glaze over the salmon.
Return to the broiler for one minute, then transfer it to a serving platter.
Serve with steamed vegetables like broccoli or asparagus, or cauliflower rice!
