This Soy Maple Glazed Salmon is insanely good. The salmon is bursting with flavor. It has a mild sweetness from the maple syrup and a hint of saltiness from the soy sauce. It literally seems to melt in your mouth. After your first bite, this will be a regular on your dinner rotation. It’s that good.

Ingredients

For The Glaze

  • ▢ ½ cup maple syrup
  • ▢ 3 tablespoon coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • ▢ 3 tablespoon soy sauce
  • ▢ 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • ▢ 2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ▢ ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ▢ ⅛ teaspoon pepper

For The Salmon

  • ▢ 2 pounds salmon cut in fillets
  • ▢ salt and pepper dash
  • ▢ ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ▢ ¼ teaspoon paprika

Instructions

For The Glaze

  1. Preheat oven to 385 degrees.
  2. Mix ½ cup maple syrup, 3 tablespoon coconut sugar (brown sugar), 3 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 2 teaspoon minced garlic, ¼ teaspoon paprika, and ⅛ teaspoon pepper in a bowl.

For The Salmon

  1. Line a 9 x 13 baking dish with aluminum foil.
  2. Lay salmon fillets in the pan. Leave about a ½ inch between fillets.
  3. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top of fillets.
  4. Mix ½ teaspoon garlic powder and ¼ teaspoon of paprika. Sprinkle evenly on top of salmon.
  5. Pour glaze mixture on top of salmon fillets evenly.
  6. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
  7. Place in the heated oven and bake for 30 minutes. Check with a thermometer after 30 minutes to make sure the internal temperature of the thickest part of the fillet is 145 degrees. It may take a little longer or less, depending on the thickness of the fillet. Salmon will flake with a fork when it is done.
  8. Serve with the glaze spooned over the top of the salmon.
  9. Enjoy!

TIPS

  • Cover the salmon with foil as tightly as you can. This is the secret to keeping the moisture in and not letting it evaporate as it bakes.
  • Don’t exceed 385 degrees. Salmon is a delicate fish and needs to bake at a fairly low temperature to maintain its moisture.
  • Ensure to cook the salmon to an internal temperature of 145°F, measured in the thickest part of the salmon filet. It should flake with a fork when done. It may take longer to cook if the fillets are quite thick.
