Broil the salmon for about 10 minutes or until the salmon is opaque and easily flaked on the side with a fork. Make sure to watch the salmon, as the marinade has sugar and could cause it to burn. (See notes.)

Oh this is such a great recipe - the corn syrup really helps give a beautiful shine to the finished fish! I'll be trying this with black cod, next!
