How to Make Baked Marinated Salmon

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place salmon fillets (about 1.5 lbs total) in a baking dish.
  3. Evenly spread 2 tablespoons of brown sugar over the salmon.
  4. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and the juice of 1 lemon.
  5. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 8 hours to marinate.
  6. Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  7. Baste occasionally with the pan juices during baking.
  8. (Optional) For a smoky flavor, grill the marinated salmon over medium coals for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally.
