Brown Sugar Glazed Salmon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cut the salmon into bite-size pieces and place in a large bowl. Combine the brown sugar, salt, pepper, garlic, paprika, and cayenne in a small bowl and stir to combine.

2. Lightly spray or drizzle the salmon with olive oil. Sprinkle the salmon with about ⅔ of the sugar and spice mixture and toss with your hands to coat. Spray a large baking sheet with oil and spread the salmon across the baking sheet. Sprinkle each piece of salmon with the remaining spice mixture.

3. Place the salmon in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, and increase the heat to BROIL on high. When the oven reaches broiling temperature, return the salmon to the oven and broil for 3-4 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through and the glaze has lightly caramelized.

4. Remove from the oven and test the salmon for doneness. The fish should barely flake apart with a fork. The cooking time required will depend on the thickness of the salmon.
