Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl stir together brown sugar, lime juice, lime zest, butter, garlic and cayenne pepper.
- Place salmon fillets in a dish. Spoon and spread lime mixture over tops and sides of salmon if using skin-on salmon, if using skinless spread mixture over top and bottom of salmon (use up all of the mixture). Let marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Line a 13 by 9-inch baking dish with Reynolds Kitchens Unbleached Parchment Paper. Place salmon on parchment, leaving space between fillets. Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake in preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 12 - 15 minutes (cook time will vary based on thickness of fillets).
- Sprinkle with cilantro and serve warm with lime wedges for spritzing over salmon. Serve over Coconut Rice if desired.
Notes
- *1/2 tsp is spicy! If you don't like heat then reduce amount to taste or omit.
