Ingredients:
4 salmon filets
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 table spoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Sesame seeds
Chopped green onions
Steps:
- Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, and ginger (if using). This will be your sweet and savory marinade.
- Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, making sure each fillet is well coated.
- Cook the Salmon: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Remove the salmon from the marinade (reserving the extra marinade for later) and place the fillets on the baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake the salmon for 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until it flakes easily with a fork. Halfway through baking, brush the salmon with the reserved marinade for extra flavor.
- Garnish and Serve: Once baked, sprinkle the salmon with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for a fresh burst of flavor.
Enjoy your sweet and savory salmon! Serve alongside rice or veggies for a complete meal.
