Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 skinned salmon fillets
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Lay salmon fillets on a piece of paper towel and dry carefully. Check fish over for any bones. Remove with tweezers if you find any. Lay fillets side by side in a glass or ceramic dish.
  • Combine maple syrup, lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger and mix thoroughly. Add chile flakes and stir again.
  • Pour marinade over salmon. Cover and let marinate for 20 minutes at room temperature. Turn after 10 minutes, so all sides of fillets come into contact with marinade.
  • Heat a griddle or cast-iron frying pan over high and add oil. Heat until hot but not smoking.
  • Take fillets one at a time from marinade and carefully transfer to pan. Cook 2 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium and cook fillets for 4 minutes.
  • Then flip over and cook for an additional 4 minutes. Remove from pan and keep warm.
  • While salmon is cooking, transfer marinade to a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce to create a thick, syrupy sauce, then strain.

MAPLE-GLAZED SALMON



Maple-Glazed Salmon image

A delicious glaze recipe for a variety of dishes! We've tried it both on salmon and chicken, and were thrilled with the results.

Provided by deb baldwin

Categories     Fish

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 c pure maple syrup (i use mrs. buttersworth)
2 Tbsp finely grated peeled fresh gingerroot (i use 1 tablespoon chopped ginger out of jar)
juice of lemon ( i use 4 tablespoons lemon juice)
3 Tbsp soy sauce
1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
2 1/2 lb center cut salmon fillet with skin, pinbones removed and sliced into 3 inch fillets
salt and peper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. In a small heavy saucepan, simmer maple syrup, ginger, lemon juice, soy sauce, and garlic until reduced to about 1 cup, around 30 minutes and let cool.(Maple glaze may be made up to 2 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring maple glaze to room temperature before proceeding.) The house is going to smell so good.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a shallow baking pan large enough to hold salmon. Reserve 1/2 cup of glaze. Place salmon skin side down and brush with glaze. Season Salmon with salt and pepper if needed. Bake in middle of oven until just cooked through, about 20 minutes. (Baste with more glaze during baking) Heat reserve glaze over low heat to use as a sauce. Keep glaze warm, covered. Serve with sliced lemon and glaze.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillets: Look for fillets that are about 1 inch thick and have a firm, even texture. Avoid fillets that are thin or have any signs of bruising or discoloration.
  • Marinate the salmon fillets: Marinating the salmon fillets in a mixture of maple syrup, olive oil, and spices will help to add flavor and moisture to the fish. You can marinate the fillets for as little as 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Cook the salmon fillets over medium heat: Cooking the salmon fillets over medium heat will help to prevent them from overcooking and drying out. Cook the fillets for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and flaky.
  • Make the maple glaze: While the salmon fillets are cooking, make the maple glaze by combining maple syrup, butter, and spices in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly.
  • Brush the salmon fillets with the maple glaze: Once the salmon fillets are cooked, brush them with the maple glaze. This will help to add a sweet and sticky coating to the fish.

Conclusion:

Maple glazed salmon fillets are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet maple syrup and savory spices creates a flavor that is sure to please everyone. Serve the salmon fillets with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
