Maple-Soy Glazed Salmon Steaks

Submitted by Laka

"Balance of salty and sweet and the depth of flavor the maple syrup offers to this salmon is exceptional."

 

• Ready In: 55mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1⁄3 cup maple syrup
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 600 g salmon steaks
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (or dry) (optional)
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

directions

1. Whisk together maple syrup, soy sauce and garlic in a bowl. Place salmon steaks in a shallow dish and pour the mixture evenly over them. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes, rotating salmon once halfway through.
2. Transfer marinated salmon into the baking dish greased with olive oil (save the marinade). Sprinkle with chives and bake in the oven at 200°C until salmon is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, pour marinade into a small saucepan, bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat slightly and allow to cook for several minutes, stirring frequently, until reduced to ¼ cup.
4. Serve salmon warm with 1 Tbs of the maple soy- glaze drizzled over top and black pepper and chives if desired.

I decided to try this recipe that didn’t have any review stars. I’m glad I did. This reminds me of the smoked maple salmon sold at the store minus the smoky flavor. I like the slight sweetness with the soy sauce. When reducing the sauce be sure to use low heat. Also note that 200 is in Celcius. I baked mine in 425 F about 15 mins. I think 10 mins should do.
