Broiled Salmon

broiled salmon seasoned with olive oil, brown sugar, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and mustard
  • Serves:  4
  • Prep Time:  5 min
  • Cook Time:  10 min

Ingredients

  • 1 (1½ pound) salmon filet
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dark brown sugar
  • 1 ¼ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons sweet paprika
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
  • Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for serving

Method

  1. Turn the oven on broil with a rack in the top position. Place the salmon on a large rimmed sheet, skin side down.

  2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, brown sugar, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and mustard. Brush the sauce all over the salmon.

  3. Broil until the salmon is crispy and flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.

  4. Sprinkle with parsley, if using. Serve.


Note: Oven temperatures vary and the broiler is a super hot tool, so just keep a close eye while it cooks. If your salmon gets a little charred on the edges, that's ok!
