How to Make Texas Roadhouse Salmon

Ingredients:

• 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, melted butter, honey, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika until smooth.
3. Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet and brush generously with half of the glaze mixture, coating the tops and sides.
4. Bake for 8 minutes, then remove from oven and brush with the remaining glaze mixture for extra flavor and shine.
5. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
6. Remove from oven and let rest for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately while hot.

How to Serve Texas Roadhouse Salmon

Serve Texas Roadhouse Salmon hot, straight from the oven. It pairs wonderfully with sides like mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or a fresh garden salad. You can also serve it with a squeeze of lemon for an extra zing. A sprinkle of extra chopped parsley on top adds a nice touch!

How to Store Texas Roadhouse Salmon

If you have leftovers, let the salmon cool completely before storing. Place it in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator. It will remain fresh for up to 2-3 days. For longer storage, you can freeze the salmon fillets; just be sure to wrap them tightly to avoid freezer burn.

Tips to Make Texas Roadhouse Salmon

• Make sure to pat the salmon dry. This helps the glaze stick better.
• Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar based on your taste.
• For a touch of heat, add crushed red pepper flakes to the glaze.
• Let the salmon rest after baking for a couple of minutes; this really allows the flavors to meld.

Variation

You can easily adapt this recipe by using different types of fish, such as trout or tilapia, using the same glaze. For a fruity twist, try adding some chopped pineapples into the glaze for a tropical flavor.

FAQs

1. Can I grill the salmon instead of baking it?
   Yes, you can grill the salmon! Just prepare the glaze and brush it on while grilling it over medium heat until it’s cooked through.

2. What should I do if my salmon is overcooked?
   If your salmon is overcooked, try serving it with a sauce or dressing to add moisture back. You can also make salmon salad out of it.

3. Can I use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder?
   Yes, you can use fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder. About 1-2 cloves should be sufficient for this recipe.

4. How do I know when the salmon is done?
   The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork and has an internal temperature of 145°F. You can use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
