Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon steaks
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) Fresh parsley
- 4 pieces (for serving) Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Pat the salmon steaks dry with paper towels and brush both sides with the olive oil.
Step 4
Rub the spice mixture generously over the salmon steaks, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
Step 5
If using a grill, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the salmon steaks directly on the grill, skin side down, and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and forms a caramelized crust. If using an oven, place the salmon steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 8-10 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the salmon from the heat and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.
Step 7
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a burst of freshness.
Step 8
Enjoy your Cinnamon Brown Sugar BBQ-Ed Salmon Steaks with your favorite side dishes!
