A childhood favorite! My mom used to make this dish for us all the time. It's easy to make and delicious, so I can see why this was on regular rotation!

Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce and brown sugar together.
In a baking dish or rectangular casserole dish, pour in the soy sauce mixture.
Put in your salmon filets, flesh side down.
Marinate them for about 10 minutes.
In a skillet, on medium-high heat, add in some vegetable oil and put in your salmon filets, skin side down (very important, not flesh side).
Let skin side down cook about 3 minutes then sprinkle sugar on top of the salmon (flesh side) then flip and cook the other side until salmon is cooked through.
If you're afraid of the flesh side of the salmon burning, you can turn the heat down to about medium-low. Salmon doesn't take very long to cook so it shouldn't burn (keep an eye on it!). It'll be a nice dark brown crust on top.
