Lemon Maple Glazed Salmon

Before:


After:




Ingredients:

1) Prepared wild spring salmon

2) Lemon

3) Organic Canadian Maple Syrup

4) Salt and Pepper

5) Dill, tarragon, soft favorite spices

6) Polish Mayonnaise



Directions:

(* Note : If you are preparing your salmon for two, you can cut it now to create a seamless edge during the cooking process. This way when you are serving, your guests don't have flaky salmon, rather it is in one piece, moist, neat and tidy.)

1) Preheat oven to 350

2) Cut your lemon in to thin slices, on a slant if you want to be fancy-schmancy.

3) Combine about 3 tablespoons of Mayo with 2 teaspoons of maple syrup.

4) Add spices, salt and pepper to the Maple-mayo combination. Stir.

5) Place salmon in baking dish- arrange lemons on top.

6) Drizzle half of the the maple mixture on the salmon, focusing on the center.

7) Bake for 20-30 minutes depending on the size of the fish.
( You will know when its cooked, as your house will start to smell delish, and the salmon will have milky white layers develop on the surface.)

8) Pour the remainder of the Maple mixture on to the cooked salmon, followed by salt and pepper to taste.


Tip:

This dish is great with salad, or any side dish that can mimic the flavors with notes of citrus.

Spicy thought:

I like to use the same spices in the side dishes as I do in the main course- its just like decorating- Choose your main focus and add little splashes of the same flavors throughout the space to develop the theme and create comfort.


Enjoy!
