Javanese Roasted Salmon - Salmon Panggang Bumbu Kecap

I got this recipe from a cookbook "Salmon" by Diane Morgan. She was inspired by entr�e that she has had many times at the restaurant Saucebox, in Portland, Oregon.
She uses light soy sauce and golden brown sugar, both those ingredients mixed together can be subtituted for Indonesian sweet soy sauce aka kecap manis. You can buy it asian groceries, but if you live in Canada you can find that kecap manis at Superstore.

2. Have ready a large saut� pan and rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the salmon lightly with salt and pepper. Melt 2 tablespoons of the remaining butter over high heat. Swirl to coat pan and add the salmon. Sear the salmon until golden on one side, about 2 minutes. Turn and sear the other side, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer the salmon to the baking sheet and spoon the sauce over each fillet. Place in the oven and roast until the salmon is almost opaque throughout, about 5 minutes. Serve this with Grilled Asparagus.
