Simple Simon Maple Salmon Recipes

MAPLE-GLAZED SALMON

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.

MAPLE-BAKED SALMON

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.

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!)
