One of my readers, Marina, shared the concept for this soy-maple glaze with us, saying “it is by far the best salmon recipe I’ve ever had.” Naturally, I was curious and after looking at the ingredients (you really can’t go wrong with this list!), I was off to the grocery store to re-create. We loved this maple salmon on the grill for the added smokiness. The sizzling hot grates seal in flavor and add those pretty grill marks that are the hallmark of summer! Watch the video tutorial and you’ll be convinced! You can also make this a baked maple salmon for the winter months (see instructions below).
Watch How To Make Maple Salmon:
We served this maple salmon with grilled zucchini and garlic mashed potatoes. It was an easy, excellent dinner! 🙂
Notes on Grilling Times:
It all comes down to how thick salmon fillets are. Follow these guidelines for grilling over med/high (350˚F heat): 1″ thick fillets = 4 to 5 minutes per side 3/4″ thick fillets = 3 to 4 minutes per side 1/2″ thick fillets = 2 to 3 minutes per side
Instructions for Baked Maple Salmon:
- Combine the salmon and sauce in a baking pan and marinate 45 minutes in the refrigerator, turning half way.
- Preheat oven to 400˚F and bake salmon in the same pan (with the sauce) for 20 minutes or until flaky and cooked through.
Throw some salmon on the grill and have an awesome week my friends! 🙂
