Ready in: 30 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 2 tablespoons butter (use the real deal)
• 2 cloves garlic (chucked or minced)
• 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
• 2 pounds salmon fillets (thicker is better on grill)

Preparation method

Prep: 10 mins | Cook: 20 mins

1. Melt butter in small saucepan and add garlic. (If you’re not a huge fan of garlic, use chunks so you can extract flavor, then remove the chunks).
2. Add remaining ingredients (except salmon) and cook until sugar is dissolved.
3. If broiling: Place on broiling pan (raised rack with foil is good). Broil for about 5 minutes, then baste. Continue broiling for about 8 to 10 more minutes or until salmon is opaque and flakes with fork.
4. If grilling: Lightly oil grate. Place salmon on grill (medium heat) then baste with sauce. After 5 minutes, turn salmon and baste again. Continue turning and basting until salmon is opaque and flakes with a fork.
