Main Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets, 6 oz each
- 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
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels to ensure the glaze sticks well.
- Prepare Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, melted butter, honey, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika until smooth and combined thoroughly.
- Apply First Glaze: Place the salmon fillets on the lined baking sheet. Using a brush, coat each fillet evenly with half of the prepared glaze, making sure every piece is well covered for maximum flavor.
- Bake First Round: Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. This allows the glaze to infuse the fish and begin caramelizing.
- Apply Second Glaze & Continue Baking: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and brush the remaining glaze onto each salmon fillet. Return the salmon to the oven and bake for an additional 8 to 10 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
- Rest and Garnish: Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for a burst of color and freshness before serving.
Notes
- Patting the salmon dry before glazing helps the flavors adhere better and prevents steaming during baking.
- Using parchment paper on the baking sheet prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
- Check the internal temperature of salmon with a food thermometer to ensure it is fully cooked but not overdone.
- Fresh parsley adds a touch of color and a mild herbaceous note but can be omitted if unavailable.
- The glaze can be adjusted in sweetness by modifying the amount of honey or brown sugar to taste.
