For the glaze

3 tbsp brown sugar, packed
Chef's tip
Use the same volume. Brown-sugar replacements vary in moisture, spread, and browning, so follow the package's baking guidance and start checking a few minutes early.
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
1 tsp unsalted butter

For serving

1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season the flesh side evenly with the salt.
2
Combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, and grated ginger in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the glaze is smooth and slightly thickened, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted. Set aside.
