Ingredients

For the Salmon & Sauce:

• 3–4 salmon filets

• Olive oil, for searing

• Island Gold seasoning, to taste (for both salmon & sauce)

• ¼ cup honey

• 4 tablespoons butter

• 2 tablespoons coconut water

• Juice from 1 lime

For the Broiled Corn Salsa:

• 4 ears of corn, husked

• Olive oil

• Salt & Char seasoning, to taste

• ½ red onion, finely diced

• Juice from 1 lime

• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

To Serve:

• Fluffy coconut rice

Instructions

1. Prepare the Salmon

1. Pat the salmon filets dry and season lightly with Island Gold.

2. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Sear the salmon, skin side down first, for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and crisp. Remove salmon from the pan and set aside.

2. Make the Honey Jerk Sauce

1. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium.

2. Add butter, honey, coconut water, lime juice, and an extra shake of Island Gold seasoning.

3. Whisk until the sauce comes together, glossy and slightly thickened.

4. Return the salmon filets to the pan, spooning the sauce over the top. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and coated in the jerk glaze.

3. Broil the Corn Salsa

1. Preheat your broiler to low.

2. Brush the corn with olive oil and season with Salt & Char.

3. Place under the broiler, turning occasionally, until the kernels are golden and slightly charred (about 8–10 minutes).

4. Cut the kernels off the cob and toss with diced red onion, lime juice, and cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

4. Serve It Up

Spoon the fluffy coconut rice onto plates, top with honey jerk salmon, and serve with a generous scoop of broiled corn salsa on the side. Finish with an extra squeeze of lime for brightness.

Tips & Variations

• Add extra Island Gold if you love a bolder jerk kick.
