Description
A beautifully cooked salmon fillet with a sweet and savory glaze that captivates every guest around the dinner table.
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 your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry using paper towels.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, melted butter, honey, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika until smooth.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet and generously brush half of the glaze mixture over the tops and sides.
- Bake for 8 minutes, then remove from the oven and brush with the remaining glaze mixture for an extra burst of flavor.
- Return to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven and allow the salmon to rest for 2 minutes.
- Finally, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately while hot.
Notes
Using a meat thermometer can help ensure that your salmon is cooked to the perfect temperature of 145°F.
