This recipe for Maple Glazed Salmon is courtesy of Green Mountain at Fox Run, Vermont, the former for-women-only health and weight loss retreat. We have made this countless times, always to great applause.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Vermont maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon or stone-ground mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped gingerroot - if desired
- 1 pound salmon fillet
- 2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions - if desired
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients except salmon and scallions.
- Cut salmon fillet into 4 serving pieces. Place fish in shallow glass or plastic dish. Drizzle marinade over fish, reserving about 1/4 cup marinade to serve over cooked fish. Chill the fish about 30 minutes.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Remove fish from marinade, set aside marinade. Place fish in a baking dish or on a cedar plank (available from culinary stores). Bake 15-20 minutes, until fish flakes easily with a fork.
- To serve, drizzle the reserved 1/4 cup unused marinade over cooked fish. Top with scallions or sesame seeds.
- Grilled Variation: Instead of baking, place on a grill rack, cover and grill fish 5-6 inches from medium coals for about 4 minutes. Turn fish, brush with additional marinade, cover and grill another 4 minutes longer or until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
