Ingredients

Scale

Salmon

  • 4 salmon fillets, 6 oz each

Glaze

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Salmon: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which helps the glaze adhere better.
  2. 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, creating a sweet and savory glaze.
  3. Apply Initial Glaze: Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each fillet generously with half of the glaze mixture, making sure to coat the tops and sides for maximum flavor.
  4. Bake First Round: Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 8 minutes to start cooking and caramelizing the glaze.
  5. Apply Remaining Glaze: Remove the salmon from the oven and brush with the remaining glaze for added flavor, moisture, and a beautiful shine.
  6. Bake Until Done: Return the salmon to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the internal temperature reaches 145°F, ensuring it is fully cooked.
  7. Rest and Garnish: Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and fresh herb flavor before serving immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Make sure not to overcook the salmon to keep it moist and tender.
  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a different sweetness profile.
  • For a spicier glaze, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
  • To make this recipe gluten-free, use a gluten-free soy sauce or tamari.
  • Leftover salmon can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and enjoyed cold or reheated gently.
