BROILED SALMON WITH CITRUS GLAZE

So this is an Alton Brown recipe. It's one of our favorite ways to eat Salmon. Of course, we made some modifications because, well we like a little heat and we like our salmon a little more well done.


David and I saw Alton at a live cooking show in Tucson many years back and had the best time. Learned a lot. He's actually really funny!


Ingredients

  • 1/2 to 2 pounds Salmon, pin bones removed

  • 1/3 cup dark brown sugar

  • 2 tbsp lemon zest

  • 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt

  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (an Underwood addition)

Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients

Step 2: Place salmon skin side down on a foil lined baking sheet. (Sometimes I spray the foil with cooking oil to help keep the skin from sticking.)

Step 3: Cover fish evenly with brown sugar mix. Set aside for up to 45 minutes, at room temperature

Step 4: Place one rack in the middle of the oven and one rack at the top of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F

Step 5: When oven comes to temperature, bake salmon for 15-20 mins

Step 6: Move the salmon to top rack and turn oven to broil. Leave salmon to continue to cook for another 5-6 minutes or until thickest part of the salmon's internal temperature is 140 - 145 degrees F

Step 7: Let salmon rest for 10 min before serving
