Sweet and Spicy Glazed Salmon

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet and Spicy Glazed Salmon.

1. Step 1

   Start by placing your salmon fillet in a shallow dish and setting it aside, ready for a flavor-packed transformation.

2. Step 2

   In a blender, mix together red wine vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, water, fresh lemon juice, red pepper flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, chopped cilantro, and brown sugar.

3. Step 3

   Blend these ingredients until the brown sugar is completely dissolved, creating a delicious marinade that will elevate your salmon.

4. Step 4

   Pour this vibrant marinade over the salmon, making sure it’s evenly coated for maximum flavor.

5. Step 5

   Cover the dish and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours; this is where the magic happens as the flavors meld beautifully.

6. Step 6

   When you’re ready to cook, preheat your broiler and line a broiling pan with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

7. Step 7

   Take the salmon out of the marinade and place it on the prepared broiling pan.

8. Step 8

   Season it with a sprinkle of salt and pepper to enhance its natural taste.

9. Step 9

   Don’t forget to transfer the leftover marinade to a saucepan for later use.

10. Step 10

    Now, it’s time to broil! Position the salmon about six inches from the heat source and broil it for about five minutes.

11. Step 11

    After that, brush the salmon with the remaining marinade and continue broiling for an additional five to ten minutes.

12. Step 12

    Keep an eye on it, brushing with the marinade two or three more times during this period.

13. Step 13

    You’ll know it’s done when the salmon flakes easily with a fork and has lost its bright red color.

14. Step 14

    While your salmon is broiling to perfection, take the leftover marinade and cook it over low heat in the saucepan.

15. Step 15

    Let it simmer until it thickens and reduces by about one-third, which should take around five to ten minutes.

16. Step 16

    This rich sauce can be used as a delightful dipping sauce or drizzled over the salmon just before serving, adding an extra layer of flavor that your guests will love.

17. Step 17

    Enjoy your beautifully broiled salmon, bursting with flavor and ready to impress!.
