Ingredients

1 pound salmon fillets

0.33333334326744 cup brown sugar, divided

2 teaspoons lemon pepper, divided

1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided

0.33333334326744 cup low sodium soy sauce

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root, minced

0.33333334326744 cup orange juice

Instructions

Step 1
Rub salmon fillets with about 1 tablespoon brown sugar; lightly season with lemon pepper and garlic powder, then rub into fillets.
Step 2
Combine soy sauce and olive oil in a small saucepan set over medium heat; stir in ginger and remaining each brown sugar, lemon pepper, and garlic powder. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly until brown sugar has dissolved. Off heat, stir in orange juice.
Step 3
Pour soy marinade into a resealable plastic bag; add salmon fillets, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 3 hours to overnight.
Step 4
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
Step 5
Remove salmon fillets from marinade and shake off excess; place fillets on an aluminum foil-lined baking pan. Reserve marinade.
Step 6
Broil in the preheated broiler, skin-sides up, 2 minutes. Remove from oven, remove skins from fillets using tongs. Baste fillets with reserved marinade; broil 2 minutes more. Flip fillets; broil until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes more. Let sit before serving, 5 minutes.
