How to Make Mustard And Brown Sugar Rubbed Salmon
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, and 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Evenly press the brown sugar mixture onto the top surface of each fillet.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Place the salmon fillets, rub-side down, in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the rub dissolves and darkens slightly, and the edges appear opaque.
- Carefully flip the salmon fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- For an extra smoky flavor, grill the salmon using the same rub and cooking times (adjusting time based on grill temperature).
- Serve immediately. Do not overcook!
