Creating Texas Roadhouse Style Baked Salmon with Sweet and Savory Glaze is simple when you follow these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2. Prepare Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger (if using), black pepper, salt, and lemon juice until well combined.
3. Marinate Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure each fillet is coated evenly. Allow it to marinate for 15-30 minutes for the best flavor.
4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Discard the leftover marinade.
5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
6. Broil for Crispness: If desired, switch the oven to broil for the last 2-3 minutes for a crispier top. Keep a close eye to prevent burning!
7. Garnish: Once fully cooked, remove the salmon from the oven. Sprinkle chopped green onions on top for a fresh finishing touch.
8. Serve Immediately: Plate the salmon fillets and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
Following these step-by-step instructions will ensure that your Texas Roadhouse Style Baked Salmon with Sweet and Savory Glaze turns out amazing every time!
