Ingredients
Scale
Salmon
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
Glaze
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
Garnish
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, melted butter, honey, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels, then place them skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush half of the glaze evenly over each fillet to coat them.
- Bake the Salmon: Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Then remove the baking sheet and brush the remaining glaze over the fillets. Return the salmon to the oven and bake for an additional 8 to 10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Rest and Garnish: Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving to add a fresh and vibrant touch.
Notes
- Ensure the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145°F for safe consumption.
- You can adjust the amount of brown sugar and honey for sweetness preference.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the glaze.
- Serve with steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
- To avoid overcooking, monitor the salmon closely during the final baking stage.
