Infusing Garlic and Brown Sugar may have you hesitant to try at first but but let me tell you, it is a match made in heaven. I have always loved Brown Sugar glazed Salmon and was looking to add something of a twist. Garlic goes well with pretty much everything right? So why not my Brown Sugar Glazed Salmon? I am quick to try something once and you know what they say… you will never know if you like it until you try it.

Brainstorming how I can make a type a sauce that wasn’t overpowering and didn’t consist of a bunch of Brown Sugar and Butter and etc that I was already using in this recipe but wanted the same flavor profile to serve over a bed of Rice. I took a chance with adding Heavy Cream to the recipe using the pan ingredients leftover from cooking the Salmon. It actually came out quite tasty with a hint of Sweetness that paired well with the Salmon and gave the Rice a little something extra to enjoy it with.

Here we are with Garlic Brown Sugar Salmon Bites with nothing more than a few brainstorming ideas and a dish full of flavor. This infusion in ingredients will have you second guessing how soon is too soon to put this on your menu again and again.

“Never underestimate the power of creativity, it is those moments you create the most magic!”
