A fiery sweet for your meat!
Here’s a quick recipe that’ll add a delicious sweet spice to your chicken, pork, or salmon. Honey Sriracha glaze is all of five ingredients and no more than five minutes to make. It’s really simple, yet the flavor makes it seem like so much more. Sweet, slightly spicy, and a little garlicky – it’s so fun to eat.
Use it as a glaze for baking or grilling, or try it as a dipping sauce for chicken wings and fried chicken tenders. We use cayenne pepper powder in the recipe to add a little extra oomph (the honey really dilutes the Sriracha heat), but feel free to remove (or add!) cayenne to fit your heat tolerance.
Honey Sriracha Glaze
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar packed
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper powder optional
Instructions
- Add all ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir until fully combined.
- Use immediately as a glaze for chicken, pork, or salmon.
Notes
If you're concerned about the overall heat in this recipe, skip the cayenne pepper and halve the Sriracha called for to 1 tablespoon. You can also add a touch more honey to sweeten it up.
