Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb salmon fillet
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • toasted sesame seeds (for garnish) optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 F.
  • Prepare glaze by stirring together maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic, and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Place the salmon skin-side down on the baking sheet. Glaze the salmon with the mixture you prepared. Cook in a 400 F oven for 10 minutes. Glaze once more. Depending on the thickness of your fillet, bake about 8-10 minutes more or until fish is cooked to your liking. To serve, you may choose to garnish with toasted sesame seeds.

Notes

Salmon is a West Coast favorite and this is an easy way to prepare a fillet packed with flavor. The glaze brings together a Canadian favourite, maple syrup, with the Asian cooking staple, soy sauce, for a lovely combination.
