Maple Soy Salmon

Healthy, fish Friday post! Low in fat, high in protein.

Ingredients:

1/2 lb salmon fillet (I used wild caught pink salmon here)

2 tbsps maple syrup

1 tbsp light soya sauce

1 tsp hoisin sauce

2 tsps minced garlic

1 tsp minced ginger

pinch of pepper

Mix the maple syrup, soya sauce and hoisin sauce together and pour over the salmon in a 13 X 9" baking dish, skin side down. Now gently rub the garlic, ginger and pepper in, cover and refrigerate 2 hours. Next, flip the fillet over, so skin side is up and the pink side is laying in the marinade. Return to the fridge, covered, for several hours or even overnight.

When ready to cook first bring the fish back to room temperature, about 1 hour on the counter. Line a baking sheet with parchment and carefully turn the fillet onto the pan, pink side up. Spoon any remaining marinade over the fish.

Broil 4" from heat source for 5-10 minutes for thin fillet, 15-20 for thicker ones.

It's done when the fish flakes easily, but you probably already know that 😇
