Learn how to make delicious Crispy Honey Butter Salmon Bites. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Don’t have smoked paprika on hand? Regular paprika will work just fine, though the smoked variety adds a lovely depth to the dish. If you’re gluten-sensitive, you can substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge each salmon cube in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon cubes in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in honey, soy sauce, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
  5. Brush the honey butter glaze generously over the salmon bites.
  6. Bake in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the glaze is bubbly.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.

As a tip from my family kitchen, always taste the glaze before applying it to ensure it’s balanced to your liking. A little extra honey or soy sauce can make a world of difference!
