Brown Sugar Dijon Grilled Salmon Recipes

BROWN SUGAR DIJON GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. and move the baking rack to the top half of the oven.
• In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar and Dijon mustard until combined. Set aside.
• Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil and lightly spray with cooking spray.
• Place the whole salmon or salmon fillets, skin side down, on the prepared sheet pan.
• Evenly sprinkle the salmon with salt and ground black pepper.
• Top the salmon with the glaze in an even layer across the top. Place into the oven and back 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the salmon from the oven and allow it to rest for 1 to 2 minutes before serving. Serve warm.

BROWN SUGAR & DIJON GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• 1. Tear off a large sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil and make a "boat" out of it - big enough to hold the fillet - with the sides going up about 3/4 inch. If you don't have heavy duty foil, just use two layers of foil to make your boat. Preheat your grill - you will need medium heat.
• 2. In a small sauce pan, place the brown sugar, butter and honey. Stir until melted, then remove from heat. Stir in the soy sauce, mustard, olive oil and ginger. Let cool for about 5 minutes.
• 3. Put the boat on a large cutting board (this makes it easy to transfer the boat to the grill), then place the salmon, skin side down, on the foil boat. Spread the brown sugar & mustard sauce evenly over the fish.
• 4. Transfer the salmon boat to your grill and cook until the edges start to brown and the fish is opaque and flakes easily. This will take 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of your salmon.
• 5. Note: Because of the sugar and honey, the glaze that drips onto the foil will burn. It's best to make your salmon boat as form fitting as possible, leaving only a 3/4 inch border between the fillet and the boat "sides".
• 6. Carefully remove the salmon boat from the grill, or you can serve directly from the grill. Cut into individual serving pieces. You don't have to cut through the skin. Just use a spatula to lift each piece away from the skin and onto a serving plate.

• Season the salmon with salt and pepper and arrange onto the prepared broiler pan. Whisk together the brown sugar and Dijon mustard in a small bowl; spoon mixture evenly onto top of salmon fillets.
• Cook under the preheated broiler until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.
