Maple-Glazed Salmon

Method

1. 1

   Whisk maple syrup, dijon, tamari and garlic into a glaze.

2. 2

   Pat the salmon dry and season; sear skin-side down in the oil over medium-high heat 4 minutes until the skin is crisp.

3. 3

   Flip the fillets, pour the glaze around them, and spoon it over as it bubbles and reduces, 3–4 minutes, until the fish is just opaque at the thickest point.

   💡 Pull it while the center still looks faintly translucent — it finishes cooking off the heat.

4. 4

   Squeeze lemon over the pan and let the fish rest 2 minutes in the glaze.

5. 5

   Plate the fillets glaze-side up and spoon the sticky pan sauce on top.
