Pepper Crusted Maple Salmon
(from adnyla’s recipe box)
I play around with the marinade, the measurements are only a guide, I start with the amounts listed, and adjust to taste from there

Cook time: 7 minutesServes 4 people
Ingredients
- 4 skinless salmon filets
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
- fresh ground black pepper
Directions
-
Mix together the soy sauce and maple syrup in a bowl big enough to hold all the salmon filets (or use a ziploc bag, that generally works for me!). Add the salmon, and marinate at least 5 hours, but preferably overnight.
-
Preheat oven to 500
-
Place foil on a baking sheet and oil lightly or spray. Grind pepper into a shallow dish, then take 1 filet, and press the top of the filet into the pepper, forming a pepper crust. Place the filet on the foil, pepper side up, and repeat with remaining filets. Bake on top rack 7 minutes. Syrup may smoke a bit, but don’t worry about that. It’ll be fine. Can also be grilled.
