Honey Tea Glazed Salmon Recipe

Instructions:

1. Brew Chamomile Tea:
   • Brew a cup of strong chamomile tea by steeping 2 chamomile tea bags or 2 tablespoons of loose chamomile tea in hot water for about 5 minutes. Allow it to cool slightly.
2. Prepare Salmon:
   • Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season them with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Preheat the Grill or Oven:
   • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 375°F (190°C).
4. Make the Glaze:
   • In a small saucepan, combine the brewed chamomile tea, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, Dijon mustard, and olive oil.
   • Simmer the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly. This usually takes about 8-10 minutes.
5. Grill or Bake the Salmon:
   • If grilling, brush the salmon fillets with olive oil and place them on the preheated grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness.
   • If baking, place the seasoned salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush them with olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
6. Apply the Glaze:
   • Brush the chamomile tea and honey glaze generously over the grilled or baked salmon during the last few minutes of cooking. Continue to baste until the glaze caramelizes and forms a glossy coating on the salmon.
7. Garnish and Serve:
   • Transfer the glazed salmon to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley or cilantro, and serve with lemon wedges on the side. This dish pairs well with a variety of sides, such as steamed vegetables, quinoa, or rice.
