Ingredients
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well.
- Marinate the salmon: Place the salmon fillet in a resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring it is well covered. Seal or cover and refrigerate.
- Marinate time: Let the salmon marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to two hours to enhance flavor absorption.

Notes
For added flavor, serve with seasonal vegetables, a fresh salad, or a drizzle of the remaining marinade if cooked. Watch grill temperature to avoid charring or overcooking.
