Steps:

• Coat your grill or a grill pan with cooking spray and preheat over medium heat. While the grill is heating, combine the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Brush each salmon fillet with 1/2 teaspoon of the oil, then rub each fillet with about 1/2 tablespoon of the spice mixture.
• Grill the salmon, flesh side down, until charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook another 5 to 6 minutes for medium doneness. For well done fish, cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a platter and serve immediately.

SWEET AND SPICY SALMON

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together all of the dry spices.
• Spray each piece of salmon with cooking spray and rub the spice rub onto the fish.
• In a pan: Using a saute pan, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add the salmon, skin side down, and cook on one side for 4-5 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until done to your liking. For medium cooked salmon, turn the heat off when you flip the fish and let it continue to cook in the pan for 2-3 minutes.
• On the grill: Place the salmon on the grill skin side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes until it is becoming pink and opaque on the sides. Flip and cook for 2-5 minutes to the level of doneness you prefer. For easier flipping, place the salmon on foil to be sure it won't stick to the grill.

SWEET AND SPICY SALMON RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• MARINATE SALMON: Place juice, maple syrup and soy in a ziploc bag along with salmon. Marinate for 20-30 minutes.
• MAKE RUB: Combine all Rub ingredients in a small bowl and mix well.
• PREPARE SALMON: Remove salmon fillets from the marinade. Discard the marinade. Place salmon fillets on a rimmed pan lined with foil or parchment paper. (If using foil, spray with oil for easy clean up). Generously sprinkle rub on top and sides of salmon (if you have a little extra and your salmon has no skin, cover that too).
• ROAST SALMON AND SERVE: Roast salmon for 10-12 minutes just until it flakes (rule of thumb is 10 minutes per inch of thickness). Don't overcook. Salmon should be medium with a bit of darker pink in the middle if you don't want it dry. Serve hot or at room temperature with lemon slices. Can be cooled, then refrigerated for a day and brought to room temperature before serving.
