INGREDIENTS:
- ¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 (2 pound) salmon fillet
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Combine brown sugar, wine, soy sauce, butter, and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Heat in the microwave on full power (100%) until boiling (roughly 2 minutes), stirring several times. Remove from microwave, and let sauce cool 10-15 minutes.
- Rinse salmon, pat dry, and cut into individual serving pieces. Pour marinade into an oven-safe dish. Place salmon in marinade and cover tightly. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Turn salmon over, recover and refrigerate another 30 minutes. (You can also cover and chill up to 1 day).
- Remove salmon from refrigerator and remove cover. Place salmon in a 375 degree oven and bake for 15-30 minutes *(see note), or until salmon is done throughout.
- Serve.
- **(see note)
Notes:
*The length of cooking time will largely depend on your oven, and the thickness of your salmon filet. Just be sure that your salmon is done throughout the fish.
**You can make two batches of the marinade. One batch is used to marinate the fish in (as the recipe indicates); then, for the second batch, you can just make the marinade so that it can be poured over each filet at serving time.
