Directions
Warm your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet. Lay the salmon fillets out on the sheet. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, brown sugar, garlic, smoked paprika, regular paprika, and chile powder until well combined. Spread this flavorful mixture evenly over the salmon. Give the fillets a good squeeze of fresh lemon juice on top. Pop the salmon in the oven and bake for about 13 to 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Enjoy!
