- 4 fillets Salmon Fillets (Opt for fresh Atlantic or wild-caught for the best flavor and texture.)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (Helps the glaze adhere and promotes a crispy exterior.)
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar (Adds a beautifully caramelized sweetness that complements the savory notes of the fish.)
- 1 tablespoon Smoked Paprika (Infuses a deep smoky flavor reminiscent of Texas Roadhouse salmon.)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (Enhances the dish with a subtle garlic aroma.)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice (Brightens the dish and balances the glaze’s richness.)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard (Provides tang and depth to the sweet glaze.)
- 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce (Offers umami flavor; substitute with tamari for a gluten-free option.)
- 2 tablespoons Parsley (Adds a pop of freshness and color just before serving.)
- Preheat your oven to 400°F or prepare your grill for medium-high heat.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and brush them with olive oil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and soy sauce until smooth.
- Spoon or brush the glaze generously over the salmon fillets and let them marinate for 10-15 minutes.
- Place the salmon fillets on a lined baking sheet or directly on the preheated grill grates, skin-side down.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or grill for 6-7 minutes per side until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove the salmon from the oven or grill, let it rest for a few minutes, and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
