Ingredients
4 Salmon fillets, skinless
1/2 Teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 Teaspoon cumin
1/4 Teaspoon chili powder
1/8 Teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1/4 Teaspoon ginger, dried
1/8 Teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1/4 Teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 Cup maple syrup, real
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
Note: I had to up amounts of spices as I found this was not quite enough.
Method
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Combine maple syrup, soy sauce and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil; boil for 3-5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Set aside.
3. Combine garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, ginger, salt and black pepper in a small bowl. Gently pat seasoning onto both sides of salmon.
4. Roast salmon on a baking sheet coated with olive oil for 10 minutes. Drizzle a little glaze over each salmon filet and return to oven to roast for an additional 2 minutes (or until fish flakes easily when forked).
Serve with remaining warm maple glaze drizzled atop salmon. I served mine over fresh vegetables cooked in garlic butter.
