Sweet Glazed Salmon over Broccoli & Rice

Another HUGE meal hit happened in our house last night. ALL 3 of us LOVED it.  The sauce is made with brown sugar and low sodium soy sauce, so it has this sweet tangy taste to it.  I honestly don't think I'll have salmon any other way ever again.  And, my husband is NOT a huge fan of soy sauce, but he loved it. Had seconds even and complimented the chef ;) Also, this was SO SO easy to make and took no time at all!  It's a MUST try :)

Ingredients

1/2 cup brown sugar4 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
1 clove(s) garlic ( minced or pressed ) 1 1/2 cups brown rice, raw3 cups vegetable broth
1 head broccoli florets ( about 2 cups )
9 ounces edamame ( fully cooked with pod removed )  (I didn't have any so this step was skipped lol) 
4 salmon fillet ( 1 1/4 pounds total ) 1/2 teaspoon salt1 tablespoon olive oil
                                            

 

Directions:
1. Heat broiler. In a small bowl, combine the sugar, soy sauce, and garlic. Set aside.

 

2 . Cook the rice according to the package directions, using vegetable broth instead of water, stir in the broccoli and edamame during the last 3 minutes.

 

3. Let the rice and broccoli stand off the heat until the broccoli is tender, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

 

4. Meanwhile, place the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

 

5. Broil until the salmon is opaque throughout, 8 to 10 minutes, spooning half the soy sauce glaze over the fish during the last 2 minutes of cooking.

 

6. Serve the salmon with the rice and the remaining
