Barbecue Salmon

This dish is one of my favorites and so easy to make. The sauce has a mild, buttery sweet flavor. I have used it for both grilling and broiling salmon.

SERVES 4

Ingredients
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup butter, unsalted
4 salmon fillets, skin attached

Directions
1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together brown sugar, lemon juice, soy sauce and butter until melted and sugar is dissolved.
2. Place salmon on grill over hot coals with skin side down.
3. Cover and baste with sauce 2-3 times during cooking. Do not turn.
4. Grill for 8-10 minutes or until salmon flakes easily when forked.
5. Directions for Broiling: Prepare sauce as above, baste salmon with sauce 2-3 times during cooking and broil at medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until done.
