2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup pure maples syrup
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

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.

MAPLE SALMON



Maple Salmon image

This is the best and most delicious salmon recipe, and very easy to prepare. I love maple in everything and put this together one night. My husband totally loved it; he did not like salmon that much until he had this.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

¼ cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon garlic salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound salmon

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix the maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic, garlic salt, and pepper.
  • Place salmon in a shallow glass baking dish, and coat with the maple syrup mixture. Cover the dish, and marinate salmon in the refrigerator 30 minutes, turning once.

  • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven, and bake salmon uncovered 20 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon you can find. Look for fillets that are firm and have a bright pink color. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have any brown spots.
  • Use a good quality maple syrup. Dark amber maple syrup has a richer flavor than light amber maple syrup. You can also use Grade B maple syrup, which is less refined and has a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it just until it's opaque in the center. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served hot out of the oven. You can also store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

This recipe for salmon with maple syrup and pecans is a delicious and easy way to cook salmon. The maple syrup and pecans add a sweet and nutty flavor to the fish, and the lemon and thyme add a refreshing brightness. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
