During the last couple minutes of broiling the salmon, brush it with a glaze made from brown sugar and low-sodium soy sauce or tamari. The sweet-salty sauce starts to caramelize on top of each fillet (and the sliced red onions cooked alongside), turning irresistibly sticky and slightly crisp. Ingredients ¼ cup brown sugar 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce 1 cup long-grain white rice 1 head broccoli, florets only, chopped (about 2 cups) 4 pieces skinless salmon fillet (1 1/4 pounds total) 1 large red onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick wedges 1 tablespoon olive oil kosher salt and black pepper Directions Heat broiler. In a small bowl, combine the sugar and soy sauce. Set aside. Cook the rice according to the package directions, stirring in the broccoli during the last 3 minutes. Let the rice and broccoli stand off the heat until the broccoli is tender, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Meanwhile, place the salmon and onion on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and season with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Broil until the salmon is opaque throughout, 8 to 10 minutes, spooning half the soy sauce glaze over the fish during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Serve the salmon and onion with the rice and the remaining glaze.
