How to Make Glazed Salmon with Brown Rice

Step 1

Preheat broiler. In a bowl, combine brown sugar and soy sauce; set aside.
Step 2

Cook rice according to package directions, stirring in broccoli during the last 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand until broccoli is tender, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
Step 3

Lightly coat a shallow baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange the salmon and onion in baking pan. Drizzle with oil and season with black pepper.
Step 4

Broil the salmon, spooning half the sugar and soy sauce glaze over the salmon during the last 2 minutes of cooking, until the salmon is opaque throughout, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve the salmon and onion over the rice with the remaining glaze.
