Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or prep your grill for medium-high heat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper if using the oven.
  2. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and soy sauce. Whisk until smooth and well-blended.
  3. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and brush each with olive oil.
  4. Generously spoon the glaze over each salmon fillet, covering them evenly. Let them marinate for 10–15 minutes.

  6. Let the salmon rest for a few minutes and sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
