Fresh ginger and lime juice bring bright, zippy heat to this glaze, while honey caramelizes it into a glossy, spoon-coating finish. A grated garlic clove and toasted sesame oil round out the savory depth, and a pinch of red pepper flakes adds a warm kick if you like things spicy. Simmered down and strained until silky-smooth, this glaze is endlessly versatile brushed over grilled chicken, salmon, or roasted vegetables. It comes together in one small saucepan in under ten minutes, making it an easy way to add serious flavor without much effort. This one's a great fit for a Paleo kitchen, ready to keep on hand for weeknight dinners or meal-prepped proteins.

Combine the grated ginger, lime juice, lime zest, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using) in a small saucepan and whisk until the honey is fully dissolved.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon and a finger drawn through leaves a clear line, about 6–8 minutes.
