Maple Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Marinate the 2 salmon fillets in mixture of 1/3 cup maple syrup and 1/4 cup of soy sauce for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• Remove from refrigerator, spoon out marinade into a saucepan and reduce over medium-low heat until you're left with about half the original volume (about 10 minutes).
• Broil the fillets in a lightly oiled pan for about four minutes, skin side up.
• Flip the fillets over and brush the flesh side liberally with the reduced marinade.
• Sprinkle sesame seeds over top and broil for another 4 minutes or until the surface is caramelized and the salmon is no longer translucent in the centre.

Steps:

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

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Mix together the mustard, 1 tablespoon of the cilantro, the mayonnaise and maple syrup in a bowl. Put the salmon fillets on the baking sheet and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Spread some of the mustard mixture evenly over each fillet.
• Bake until just cooked through, 10 to 12 minute. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, maple syrup, olive oil, teriyaki sauce and some salt and pepper. Whisk until fully combined.
• Arrange the salmon in a single layer in a baking dish. Brush the glaze over the fish, coating evenly. Bake until the fish is cooked through, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Mix the soy sauce, maple syrup, orange juice, 2 garlic cloves and 2 tablespoons water in a large bowl; add the salmon and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the cauliflower and broth in a microwave-safe bowl; cover loosely with plastic wrap and microwave until tender, 6 minutes.
• Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Drain the fish, season with salt and pepper and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until slightly golden around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil and remaining garlic clove in a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook, breaking up the garlic with a spoon, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the cauliflower and broth, the cranberries, pistachios, orange zest, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste and stir to heat through. Serve with the fish.

Steps:

• For the salmon, heat vegetable oil on medium-high in a cast-iron skillet.
• For the broccoli, fill a medium pot halfway with water. Add a dash of salt and start boiling water.
• In the meantime, whisk together maple syrup, orange juice, soy sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
• Set aside 2 tablespoons for topping later.
• Place salmon fillets inside the bowl and make sure each side is covered with sauce.
• Sear the salmon 2-3 minutes on each side.
• Brush the tops with the sauce set aside.
• With the pot of water boiling, add the broccoli and cover lid. Blanch for 2 minutes.
• Drain under cold water to stop the cooking.
• In the drained pot of broccoli, stir in butter, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, some lemon zest, and garlic on low heat. Mix until broccoli is well-coated.
• On each plate, serve a filet of salmon and scoop of broccoli.
• Top with reserved marinade and sprinkle parsley for garnish.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Place salmon fillets in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, syrup, soy sauce, mustard and pepper. Pour over salmon., Cover and bake 10 minutes. Uncover and bake 8-10 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with fork. Sprinkle with almonds if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Mix maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic, dill, garlic salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
• Place salmon in a shallow baking dish and coat with the maple syrup mixture. Cover dish and marinate salmon in the refrigerator, turning once, about 30 minutes.
• Bake salmon, uncovered, in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Spray a parchment-lined casserole dish with nonstick spray and lay the salmon in it skin-side down.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, maple syrup, olive oil, thyme and cumin. Pour the mixture over the salmon, spreading to coat it evenly.
• Bake until just cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer the salmon to a serving platter.

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.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the baking dish in the preheated oven, and bake salmon uncovered 20 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork.

Steps:

• In a re-sealable bag or a small deep bowl, mix maple syrup and soy sauce. Arrange fillets so that marinade completely covers fish. Marinate in the refrigerator for as long possible (a minimum of 4 hours, but ideally 24 hours to do it justice).
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
• Rub oil on a 10 by 10-inch sheet of aluminum foil.
• Place pepper on a small plate. Remove salmon from marinade and pat topside only into cracked pepper to coat. Place fillets, pepper side up, on foil.
• Bake on the top rack of the oven for approximately 7 minutes. (Syrup may cause fish to smoke when cooking, do not be alarmed.) Salmon can also be grilled directly over hot coals for about 3 minutes per side. But do not even think about using a microwave. Avoid overcooking the fillets. Salmon is best when the color has turned to a pale pink, but the fish is still moist throughout. Serve immediately on warmed plates.

Steps:

• In small bowl, mix first four ingredients.
• Pour the marinade over the salmon in a baking dish, coat well.
• Flip the salmon to skin-side up, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or as long as all day. [I have pushed this to 'the night before'!].
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Flip the salmon back over to the skin side down.
• Bake salmon for 15 minutes, covered.
• Next, broil salmon for 5 minutes [remove cover], or until salmon is easily flaked with a fork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Combine the paprika, chili powder, ancho, cumin, garlic powder, and brown sugar.
• Place salmon on lightly sprayed baking dish or tray.
• Sprinkle the fillets with the salt, then rub with the spice mixture.

• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until it flakes with a fork.
• Serve with rice or orzo pasta and steamed green vegetables like broccoli, gai lan (Chinese broccoli), bok choy, or green beans, drizzled with bottled fish or oyster sauce.
• Note: ancho chile powder is available through many Latin markets or at Penzey's online. See http://www.penzeys.com/cgi-bin/penzeys/p-penzeysancho.html If you don't have ancho, but do have smoked Spanish paprika, try adding a bit of that! :).

Steps:

• Place salmon in a shallow dish. Combine brown sugar, maple syrup and bourbon; pour over salmon; let stand 15 minutes. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
