1/3 cup brown sugar, divided                         2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp of lemon pepper, divided                      1 piece of fresh ginger root, minced

     Season salmon filets with lemon pepper and onion powder on each side. Combine the brown sugar, crushed garlic, soy sauce, olive oil and ginger root in a small bowl. Arrange seasoned salmon filets in a ziploc bag and add marinade to coat. Refrigerate overnight but for no less than 3 hours. Preheat broiler and place salmon on a foil lined cookie sheet; reserve marinade. Broil fish for 2 minutes, turn over and baste with marinade; then cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or until fish flakes with a fork. Remove from oven and serve over brown rice or along side vegetables. The White Bordeaux may be chilled or served cool.
