I love the sweet hot bite of the honey chipotle chicken crispers at Chili’s and I was wondering how I could incorporate it into our menu, but healthier so I came up with this recipe for Honey Chipotle Glazed Salmon and I am sooo excited to share it with y’all for today’s Mouthwatering Monday.
- 1 large salmon fillet, cut in 1/2 or 2 (8 to 10 oz fillets)
- 1/4 C olive oil
- Juice from one medium size lime
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 chipotles in adobo sauce, chopped
- 1 Tbsp adobo sauce
- 1/4 C honey
- Whisk together olive oil, garlic, 1 chopped chipotle pepper and lime juice. Place salmon in a dish and coat with the olive oil mixture, marinate for 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Remove the salmon from the mixture and cook it in a medium-high heat skillet, that has been lightly drizzled with olive oil.
- While the salmon is cooking, mix the honey and adobo sauce and 1 chopped chipotle in a bowl and set aside.
- Cook the salmon about 7 minutes on each side, until the salmon is opaque on the sides and flakes with a fork.
- Remove the salmon to a plate and then drizzle with the honey chipotle mixture.
The salmon is moist, flaky, sweet and spicy and absolutely tonguegasmic!

I LOVE that sauce at Chili’s. I get a side of it for every meal I order. I’ll have to try your recipe, because I haven’t been able to find ANY on line!!

Hmmm…what inspired this one? Hubby went to the store this week and planned the meals (for me to cook), so this one didn’t make the list…after spring break, definitely!

This sounds awesome, but hubby won’t eat salmon. I am also going to try with Chicken breast later this week. I will let you know how it turns out. Thanks for sharing!
