Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 20 oz. fresh, wild-caught, salmon fillet or 4 (5 oz.) individual fillets
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp. fresh minced garlic, about 2 cloves
- Fresh minced parsley, for garnish, optional
- Kosher salt and fresh black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Arrange the salmon in a 9X13 baking dish.
- Whisk together the maple syrup, mustard, and garlic. Pour over salmon, covering the top and sides.
- Bake for 8-14 minutes or until salmon flakes with a fork. Start checking for doneness around 8 minutes. If desired, garnish with parsley before serving.
Notes
- Salmon: I used wild salmon for this recipe which is much leaner than farmed salmon. It took about 8 minutes for the salmon to be done. Farmed salmon is fattier and thicker so it will require more time to bake.
- Leftovers: Leftover salmon will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days when stored in an airtight container.
