Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, rice vinegar (if using), black pepper, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.

- Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Notes
You can serve this salmon over a bed of rice or alongside steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
Keep an eye on the salmon towards the end of the cooking time to prevent overcooking.
If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, you can increase the amount of minced garlic in the marinade.
This recipe can easily be adjusted for larger or smaller servings by modifying the amount of salmon and marinade accordingly.
