Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Cut the salmon fillet into bite-sized cubes, roughly 1-inch in size, ensuring they are uniform for even cooking.
03 -
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, hot honey, soy sauce, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are fully blended.

Add the salmon cubes to the marinade and gently toss until they are fully coated. Let them marinate for about 15-20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
05 -
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the marinated salmon bites onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them out to allow for even cooking.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. For extra caramelization, you can broil them for an additional 1-2 minutes at the end, but keep a close eye on them.

Once done, remove the salmon bites from the oven. Drizzle a little extra hot honey on top and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side for a fresh squeeze.
