Maple-Glazed Salmon

Description

"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.)"

Ingredients

  • 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)

Directions

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