Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 large red onion, cut into 1/4-inch thick wedges

  • 1 pinch kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 4 (5 ounce) skinless salmon fillets

Directions

  1. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.

  2. Combine brown sugar and soy sauce in a small bowl.

  3. Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Saute onion, salt, and pepper in the hot oil until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to sugar mixture and mix together. Place salmon fillets on a rimmed baking sheet.

  4. Cook salmon in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Turn over and drizzle with 1/2 of the sugar mixture. Continue to broil until salmon is opaque throughout and easily flaked with a fork, 5 to 10 minutes more. Serve with remaining sugar mixture.
