Ingredients:

• 4-6 salmon fillets or steaks
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 tsp grated fresh ginger
• 1/2 lime, zested
• 1/2 lime, juiced
• 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Method

Check salmon fillets for bones and remove any you find. Preheat broiler. Mix all sauce ingredients and heat in microwave to meld flavors. Salt and pepper salmon and cook under broiler (on a broiler pan) for 5-8 minutes, depending on thickness of salmon. During the last 3-5 minutes, apply sauce with a pastry brush. Apply as many layers of sauce as you wish to achieve the appropriate amount of glazing.

Notes: The glaze has maple syrup in it and if you use a heavier glaze it should be cooked lower in oven to avoid burning the maple syrup.

Number of servings: 4-6
