Hot Honey Za'atar Salmon
Salmon is one of my favorite foods to eat and to cook! I’m always looking for new ways to cook it and this has been one of my favorite recipes so far! I usually buy a whole side of salmon because I like to have leftovers so this recipe calls for a side but feel free to use filets if that suits you better. The sauce that is spread over the salmon is delicious on it’s own and would be amazing with roasted or raw veggies and as a dip for roasted potatoes! It would also be great over grilled chicken so don’t worry about having extra because you’ll definitely use it! Keep scrolling for the recipe!
