Maple syrup, garlic, jalapeño, and rice wine vinegar create a sweet and spicy marinade for fiery salmon.
Ingredients:
  • 0.25 cup maple syrup
  • 1 medium jalapeno, cut in half width-wise
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 (6 ounce) fillets salmon fillets
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
Instructions:
  • In a mini food processor or small blender jar, blend together 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1/2 jalapeño pepper, garlic, vinegar, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  • In a large resealable plastic bag, add salmon fillets and pour marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 20 minutes. Take the bag out of the refrigerator and allow it to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before proceeding.
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 425 degrees F (220 degrees C), then cover a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Take the salmon out of the marinade and gently dry it. Lay the salmon on the baking sheet you prepared earlier and season with more salt and pepper. Thinly slice the leftover jalapeno and arrange it on top of the salmon.
  • Bake the fillets in the oven for 10 minutes. Brush with 2 teaspoons of maple syrup and continue baking until the fish flakes easily with a fork, for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
