Yummy maple salmon recipe!
Again, I have been away from here for a while. I have had quite a lot on my plate lately, so I will try to update on here as often as I can! Anyhow, I wanted to share with you guys a salmon recipe I found on Allrecipes.com that was delicious, along with a few adjustments I made.
Here is the original recipe:
Maple Salmon
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 pound salmon
Directions:
- In a small bowl, mix the maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic, garlic salt, and pepper.
- Place salmon in a shallow glass baking dish, and coat with the maple syrup mixture. Cover the dish, and marinate salmon in the refrigerator 30 minutes, turning once.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven, and bake salmon uncovered 20 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork.
When I made this, I actually didn’t do any measuring whatsoever. I just made sure to add a lot of maple syrup to the mixture since I wanted the added sweetness, and I left out the garlic salt entirely, since I figured that it was already salty enough. This was my first time making this, and I never had much luck cooking salmon at home, but this one turned out to be a success! The maple taste gave the salmon a nice little zing, and even my sister who was hesitant on how this recipe would turned out absolutely loved it. You can make any changes and adjustments as you see fit and add any other side meals to this yummy dish.
I have a bit of a headache right now so I better get some rest (though I had a snow day today so at least I did get an extra day off!).
Enjoy and if you decide to prepare this, please comment and say how it turned out!
