Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed or chopped
Four 6-ounce center-cut salmon fillets, skinned
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large or 2 small shallots, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed or chopped
2 1/2 cups frozen shelled edamame (12 ounces), thawed
2 cups sugar snap peas (6 ounces), halved

Steps:

  • For the glaze: In a small saucepan, bring the vinegar, maple syrup, mustard and garlic to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thick, about 12 minutes. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
  • For the salmon: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the salmon on the baking sheet. Drizzle both sides of the salmon with the olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
  • For the vegetables: In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallots, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and cook until the shallots are softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add the edamame and snap peas and cook until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the vegetable mixture among 4 serving plates. Top with a piece of salmon and drizzle with the glaze.

MAPLE-BAKED SALMON



Maple-Baked Salmon image

Salmon baked at a low temperature until medium-rare delivers a silky texture that tastes special enough to make it a festive centerpiece. This easy dish works any night of the week, since it comes together in less than half an hour. Maple syrup sweetens the glaze, which gets a savory pop from whole mustard seeds in Dijon. Even though salmon is naturally fatty, a dollop of mayonnaise adds extra richness while thickening the glaze to help it seal onto the fish. The herbaceous aroma of cilantro stems baked into the sauce brightens the dish, as do tender leaves scattered on top. Fill out your feast with any combination of steamed rice, roasted potatoes, green beans or salad.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (1 1/2-pound) skin-on or skinless salmon fillet
12 fresh cilantro sprigs
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Remove salmon from the refrigerator. Heat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Bundle the cilantro sprigs by their stems and hold them tightly, then slice the stems crosswise until you get to the leaves. Reserve leaves for garnish. Transfer sliced stems to a small bowl and stir in the maple syrup, mustard and mayonnaise until well mixed.
  • Season the salmon all over with salt and pepper and place in a baking dish, skin-side down if there is skin. Slather the maple sauce all over the top.
  • Bake until a paring knife slides into the center with only a little resistance, 15 to 20 minutes. When you remove the knife and touch the blade to your upper lip, it should feel very warm but not hot. The salmon will continue to heat through out of the oven while in the baking dish. Top with the reserved cilantro leaves, and squeeze lemon wedges all over just before serving.

AIR-FRYER SALMON WITH MAPLE-DIJON GLAZE



Air-Fryer Salmon with Maple-Dijon Glaze image

Being landlocked in the Midwest, my kids always thought they disliked fish. This air-fryer salmon dish definitely changed their minds! I cook it on the grill a lot in the summer months, but found that it is just as tasty and more convenient in the air fryer, especially on those busy days! -Jill Fisher, Portland, Indiana

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a fillet that is about 1 inch thick and has a deep orange color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a pale color.
  • Cook the salmon to perfection: The best way to cook salmon is to cook it until it is just cooked through. Overcooked salmon will be dry and flaky.
  • Make sure the glaze is thick enough: The glaze should be thick enough to coat the salmon evenly. If the glaze is too thin, it will run off the salmon.
  • Use a good quality maple syrup: The quality of the maple syrup will affect the taste of the glaze. Use a pure maple syrup that is dark in color and has a strong flavor.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. The glaze will start to harden as it cools, so don't let the salmon sit for too long before serving.

Conclusion:

This maple dijon glaze is a delicious and easy way to add flavor to your salmon. The glaze is made with just a few simple ingredients and it can be prepared in minutes. The combination of maple syrup, dijon mustard, and herbs creates a sweet, tangy, and flavorful glaze that is perfect for salmon. This glaze is also versatile and can be used on other types of fish, such as trout or cod.
