Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, mix brown sugar, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, ginger, and lemon juice until well combined.
Ensure the sugar dissolves completely for a smooth glaze.Marinate the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
The longer you marinate, the more flavor the salmon will absorb.Preheat the Oven

A hot oven ensures a nice caramelization of the glaze.Bake the Salmon
