Cooking instructions

1. Pat the salmon dry, remove the skin if needed, and cut it into 1-inch cubes. Toss with the oil, salt, and pepper. (about 3 min)

4. While the salmon cooks, stir together the hot honey, soy sauce, and garlic. Transfer the cooked salmon to a bowl, pour the sauce over it, and toss gently to coat. (about 2 min)
