Ingredients
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
- 4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice (about half a lemon)
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger powder
- dash crushed red pepper (up to 1/4 teaspoon)
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon corn syrup
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper
- flour
- 2 pounds fresh salmon filets, skin on
- chopped pistachios, to garnish
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine maple syrup, lemon juice, ginger, crushed red pepper, soy sauce, lemon zest, and corn syrup. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until it just starts to boil and thicken, then turn off the burner.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Pat salmon filets dry and sprinkle the skin side with salt and pepper. Dust each filet with about a half teaspoon flour. Drizzle each with about 1-2 teaspoons of the sauce in the pot.
- Place salmon filets skin side down in the hot skillet. (Don’t crowd the pan, you don’t want them to steam. Do it in batches if you don’t have room.)
- Cook over high heat for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, or until there is a nice sear on the bottom. Sprinkle the top with salt and pepper, flour, and another drizzle of sauce, then flip. Cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute and then turn off the heat. Let sit in the pan for another couple minutes.
- Serve with the maple glaze. There may be extra glaze, it’s great drizzled over vegetables!
