Tips

• For extra spice, add more sriracha to the glaze.
• If you prefer a thicker glaze, simmer it on the stovetop for a couple of minutes before brushing onto the salmon.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 10 minutes.

Freezing: Not ideal for freezing due to texture changes in the salmon. Best enjoyed fresh.
