MAPLE-GLAZED SALMON



Maple-Glazed Salmon image

Salmon is my number one favorite "meat" so I'm always looking for a variety of ways to cook it. Here is another of several ways I like to prepare it. (I only make this with REAL maple syrup, so can't vouch for the results if you substitute.)

Provided by echo echo

Categories     High Protein

Time 28m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch, dissolved in
1 tablespoon water
4 salmon fillets
1 scallion, sliced thin (white part plus about 2-3 inches of the green)
1 tablespoon toasted sliced almonds (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl whisk together the syrup through cornstarch solution until smooth.
  • Place the fillets skin-side-down in a shallow baking pan.
  • Pour the syrup mixture over the salmon.
  • Bake about 15-18 minutes at 450°F until the fish flakes easily; baste with glaze halfway through cooking.
  • Sprinkle with scallion and almonds before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is about 1 inch thick and has a firm texture. Avoid fillets that are too thin or have a lot of bones.
  • Marinate the salmon: Marinating the salmon in a mixture of maple syrup, soy sauce, and olive oil helps to add flavor and moisture to the fish. You can also add other herbs and spices to the marinade, such as garlic, ginger, or rosemary.
  • Grill the salmon over medium heat: This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking and becoming dry. Cook the salmon for about 8-10 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
  • Glaze the salmon with maple syrup: While the salmon is grilling, brush it with a mixture of maple syrup, melted butter, and lemon juice. This will help to add a sweet and sticky glaze to the fish.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides: Grilled salmon can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa. You can also serve it with a dollop of tartar sauce or lemon wedges.
