Honey Soy Salmon

Ingredients
(for 2 servings)

2 salmon filets, about 6 ounces each
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon grated ginger (or ginger powder)
Sprinkle of sesame seeds
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

Mix together the soy sauce, honey, lime juice, and ginger in a shallow dish.  Dip the salmon filets into the mixture and place them in a coated baking dish.  Pour a little more of the sauce on top of each filet, leaving a little for later.  Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Broil salmon for 6-8 minutes, watching to make sure it doesn't burn.  During cooking, add the rest of the sauce directly onto the filets a little at a time.*

After it's cooked, top with chopped cilantro and enjoy.

*Alternatively, you can also fry the fish with a little oil in a pan instead of broiling it.

½ pound tilapia or other white fish

8 corn tortillas

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon vinegar

1 tablespoon lime (or lemon) juice

1 teaspoon honey

splash of hot sauce, according to desired spiciness

Garnish:

Mix together the marinade ingredients in a small baking dish and place the fish in it, making sure there's sauce all over the fish. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours.

When the fish is cooked, remove it from the oven and break it into small pieces, stirring to mix it completely with any remaining marinade sauce.  Heat the tortillas and fill them with all the ingredients.  Add extra hot sauce or a sprinkle of lime juice if desired.
