Maple Garlic Salmon
"I love this recipe because it is so easy & yummy for any busy work day. Preparation time includes the minimum marinade time, but the marinade can be done before leaving for work in the morning.
This is easily scaled to marinate any amount of salmon. I make this often just for myself with only 1 nice salmon steak. Just use the 2:1 ratio of maple syrup to soy sauce, then add enough garlic and black pepper to suit your personal taste. Goes well with rice, string green beans or peas, too."

This recipe was so easy to do and the salmon was mouth watering! I will make this again. -
This recipe was far, far too sweet!! Either cut down on the maple syrup, or simply use a low sodium teriyaki sauce, then proceed as mentioned in the recipe. The amount of maple syrup mentioned - is much too much! -
This was really good. We loved it. The marinade is so simple but has a lot of flavor. Not too sweet. Thanks Gaia :) Made for Holiday tag -
This salmon recipe is to die for! I omitted the black pepper and I only marinated the fish for 30 minutes, plus I used Aunt Jamima syrup as that is what was in the cupboard. This recipe was made for the Spring PAC 2009.

I've enjoyed baking and cooking since I was a little girl. I wish I had more time in the kitchen, but I keep a busy pace here in NYC. I became a premium member Jan. 1, 2009 as holiday gift to myself in hopes of amalgamating my favorite recipes and discovering new ones all in one place!
