- ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp soy sauce

- ¼ tsp smoked paprika
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)

Position an oven rack 6 inches from the broiler element and preheat the broiler to high. Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet and lightly coat the rack with cooking spray.

Combine the brown sugar, butter, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, and cayenne (if using) in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside — the glaze will thicken slightly as it cools.
