Time 41m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup soy sauce
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin removed
1/4 cup coarsely ground black pepper (Grind it yourself, or purchase "cracked" pepper at your grocery store)
1/2 teaspoon peanut (or other vegetable) oil, or a spritz of oil spray

Steps:

In a re-sealable bag or a small deep bowl, mix maple syrup and soy sauce. Arrange fillets so that marinade completely covers fish. Marinate in the refrigerator for as long possible (a minimum of 4 hours, but ideally 24 hours to do it justice).
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
Rub oil on a 10 by 10-inch sheet of aluminum foil.
Place pepper on a small plate. Remove salmon from marinade and pat topside only into cracked pepper to coat. Place fillets, pepper side up, on foil.
Bake on the top rack of the oven for approximately 7 minutes. (Syrup may cause fish to smoke when cooking, do not be alarmed.) Salmon can also be grilled directly over hot coals for about 3 minutes per side. But do not even think about using a microwave. Avoid overcooking the fillets. Salmon is best when the color has turned to a pale pink, but the fish is still moist throughout. Serve immediately on warmed plates.

Categories < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb Brussels sprout, trimmed and halved
1 large red onion, cut into 1-inch wedges, stem ends left intact
2 tablespoons olive oil
kosher salt
black pepper
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
1 1/2 lbs skinless salmon fillet, cut into 4 pieces
lemon wedge, for serving

Steps:

Heat oven to 450° F, with the racks in the upper and lower thirds. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the Brussels sprouts and onion with the oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Roast on the bottom rack, tossing once, until golden and tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the maple syrup, mustard, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. After the vegetables have cooked for 12 minutes, place the salmon on a second rimmed baking sheet and brush it with the maple mixture. Roast on the top rack until opaque throughout, 6 to 8 minutes.
Serve the salmon with the vegetables and lemon wedges.
