2 tablespoons olive oil
04 -
1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
08 -
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Set the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
Whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, and black pepper until fully combined.
03 -
Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish and coat evenly with the marinade. Let them marinate for 10 to 15 minutes.
04 -
Transfer the marinated salmon fillets onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
05 -
Bake the fillets in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
06 -
While baking, combine the remaining marinade with 1 tablespoon honey in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thickened.
07 -
Brush the cooked salmon with the prepared glaze. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes until the glaze is caramelized and bubbly, watching carefully to avoid burning.
08 -
Optionally, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately with your choice of sides.
# Helpful Hints:
01 -
Avoid overcooking the salmon to maintain moistness and flakiness. Broil closely but watch carefully to prevent charring of the glaze.
02 -
Leftover salmon can be stored in the refrigerator up to 3 days and reheated gently in an oven at 350°F covered with foil.
