roastedsalmonmaplesoyglaze All you need to make this Maple Soy Glazed Salmon are five basic ingredients. Enjoy the salmon with a side of rice and some steamed veggies, in a salad, or in Asian-inspired lettuce cups. This is a great base recipe to have on hand.

4 fresh salmon filets
¼ cup pure maple syrup
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. garlic, minced
1 tsp. ginger, freshly minced
kosher or sea salt
black pepper, freshly ground

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C/180°C fan, Gas Mark 6). Line a large baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray.

Place salmon filets (skin side down) on prepared pan and season with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, whisk syrup, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper. Brush glaze over salmon.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Serve immediately with extra glaze, if desired.

Makes 4 servings.

Cook's Notes: Salmon will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
