Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 tablespoons butter (divided)
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
  • 2 tablespoons chicken broth or water
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Prepare the salmon by cutting it into four equal pieces and patting it dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder, lemon juice, ginger, chicken broth (or water), and cornstarch until well combined.
  3. Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
