SIMPLE SIMON MAPLE SALMON WITH PECANS

Steps:

• 1. Cut salmon into serving-sized pieces, crosswise, about 3 inches wide or however you prefer. In small bowl, whisk rest of ingredients (except pecans) until well mixed. Put salmon pieces and maple mixture into a shallow dish or ziploc baggie to marinate. *Refrigerate while marinating. *I only got to marinate mine for about 5 hours, but next time, I'm going to marinate them overnight. Still good, but overnight would be even better! When ready to cook, remove from fridge, and remove salmon pieces from baggie saving the marinade. Place salmon into a greased/sprayed shallow baking dish, skin-side down. (I used a 13x9 and it fit really well.) Pour/spoon just a little marinade over each piece and pop into a pre-heated 375 degree oven. Pour the rest of the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat a tad, but keep at a nice steady boil, and stir occaisionally. Bake salmon for 30-35 minutes, depending on thickness, til done and flakes easily with a fork. *Halfway through baking the fish, carefully spoon a little more marinade over the fish. Not from the saucepan, but from the baking dish. Keep the marinade in the saucepan boiling to reduce til thickened. When fish is done, remove from oven and baste with juices again while you get everything else done and ready. If adding pecans, stir into saucepan of reduced marinade just before serving, or sprinkle on top of fish during last 1-2 minutes of baking. 2-3 minutes if wanting to do pecan halves. (Just watch so that they don't burn.) Plate the fish and pour your thickened sauce over the top. (I served even more of it in tiny bowls for dipping! )We had this with my buttery herbed rice and what a great dinner! Nothing else was even needed! (The sauce was great over the rice, too!)

MAPLE PECAN CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Stir in the maple syrup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and ground mustard. Stir over medium heat until the mixture is warmed through, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• While the marinade is cooling, pour the pecans into a dry skillet and heat over medium heat, tossing frequently, until golden and toasted. Remove from heat; let the pecans cool to room temperature and then chop finely.
• Place the salmon fillets in a gallon-sized ziploc bag. Pour the maple marinade over the salmon, coating the salmon pieces evenly. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Place the toasted, chopped pecans on a plate or shallow pie dish. Remove the salmon from the refrigerator. Dip the top side of each salmon fillet in the pecan crumbs pressing the salmon lightly into the pecans so they adhere to the top of the salmon. Place the fillets pecan-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
• Sprinkle the salmon with a pinch of salt.
