Method
Preheat the oven to 375°F (375°F).
Season the salmon fillets on both sides with black pepper.
Lightly spray one side of each fillet with cooking spray.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray the foil with cooking spray.
Place the salmon on the prepared sheet and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon bakes, combine apricot preserves, red pepper flakes, sugar, brandy, reduced‑sodium soy sauce, and spicy brown mustard in a saucepan over medium‑low heat.
Stir the mixture until the apricot jelly dissolves and the glaze bubbles gently, about 5 minutes.
Every five minutes, remove the salmon briefly and brush the glaze over the top of the fillets, then return to the oven to continue baking.
When the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and serve immediately, drizzling any remaining glaze over the fillets.
Tips while you cook

- Prepare baking sheet
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray it with cooking spray before placing the salmon.
- Season before spraying
- Season the fillets with black pepper, then lightly spray one side with cooking spray prior to baking.
