Chile Crisp and Honey Roasted Salmon

Chile Crisp and Honey Roasted Salmon
David Malosh for The New York Times. Food Stylist: Barrett Washburne.

Recipe by Naz Deravian | Total time: 30 minutes

Roasting a large salmon fillet that’s been covered with a sweet and spicy paste of chile crisp, mayonnaise and honey makes for a dish that’s worthy of a celebration, but also can make a weeknight feel like a special occasion. Use your favorite jar of chile crisp or make your own. Using one large piece of salmon (rather than several smaller fillets) makes it easier to spread the paste over the fish, helps it bake more evenly, and makes for a dramatic presentation. For a lighter meal, serve with a simple arugula salad; or round it out with a side of roasted potatoes or rice.
