Maple Ginger Salmon

1/4c maple syrup - best grade available
2Tb soy sauce
2tsp fresh ginger minced
2tsp fresh garlic minced
4 green onions divided
1 lb salmon
pepper

  • Preheat oven to 400
  • In a 9×13 baking dish, lightly pepper the salmon on both sides. If using low sodium soy sauce, salt the salmon to taste.
  • In a non-reactive bowl or measuring cup, combine the first four ingredients and the thinly sliced green onions
  • Pour the mixture over the salmon and let marinate for 20min. You may marinate for up to 30min.
  • Bake salmon at 400 for 20min
NOTES: 
  • I've made this the past two years for Wigilia.  It's delicious and easy.
  • Garnish with a sprig of herb like thyme or rosemary.  The visual effect is totally worth the $$ you're going to pay to get fresh herbs in the middle of winter, even if that part gets thrown away before eating.  It's just pretty.  I'll add a photo someday when I find it.  Until then, just take my word for it.  ;-)
  • Do not make one piece per person for Wigilia.  Lots of us ended up having only half when there is so much other food to consume.
