Spiced Maple Glazed Salmon Recipes

SPICY MAPLE GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• PREP: Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat the oven too 450ºF. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray (or brush with a little oil) and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the cayenne, onion powder, paprika, salt, and garlic powder.
• SALMON: Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet, brush with melted butter, and sprinkle with the prepared seasoning. Bake the salmon for 8-10 minutes depending on the thickness of the salmon. Generally, you need to bake it about 4-5 minutes for every 1/2 inch of thickness. Remove from the oven, brush with the maple syrup and place back in the oven. Switch to the broiler setting and broil for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until bubbly and brown. Serve immediately with the salad.
