Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a small bowl mix together all marinade ingredients. Be sure to reserving 1/2 cup of the water to use during the cooking process. Set aside.
  2. Preheat oven to broil with oven rack placed in the upper center position. Prepare a baking sheet by layering 2 strips of foil to cover the bottom of pan, then place an non-coated cooling rack over that.
  3. Brush skin side of salmon with olive oil (this will help to insure skin doesn't stick and become extra crispy), place fillets about 1-2 inches apart on the cooling rack in the center of backing sheet. Reserve half of marinade for glazing. Brush tops and sides of the salmon fillets with marinade. Let sit for 5-6 minutes.
  4. Broil, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes (or until fish flakes easily with a fork). Because you're broiling, it will cook quickly. Glaze OFTEN with reserved marinade to get a super sweet and sticky coating. Pour reserved water in bottom of pan half way through cooking time (helps finish cooking the fish and also keeps it moist and flaky).
  5. I like to serve mine with ginger lime shrimp and a roasted veggie like asparagus :).
