Recipe View 5 mins Rest and Serve: Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. Drizzle any remaining sauce from the pan over the salmon for extra flavor. Serve immediately, garnished with additional fresh green onions, if desired.

For a milder flavor, use a less spicy red pepper sauce or reduce the amount.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference for sweetness.
If you don't have fresh lemon juice, bottled lemon juice can be substituted, but fresh is recommended for the best flavor.
Marinating the salmon longer will result in a more flavorful and tender fish.
To check for doneness, insert a fork into the thickest part of the salmon and gently twist. The fish should flake easily and be opaque throughout.

    Easy to follow and delicious. I used gochujang for the hot sauce and it added a great depth of flavor.

  • Garnet Torp

    I was a bit hesitant about the hot sauce, but it wasn't overpowering at all. The salmon was so moist and flavorful. Will definitely make this again!

  • Mozelle Murazik

    This recipe is amazing! The sauce is the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. My family loved it!

  • Christy Doyle

    I accidentally overcooked the salmon a bit, but the sauce was so good it still tasted great! Next time I'll be sure to watch it more closely.
