made this last night! OMG!!!

I made this tonight, and it turned out really good. I didn’t have dill, so I left it out, but I used everything else. I halved the recipe since I was cooking it for two. I used a well-seasoned cast iron pan in my oven, and the maple did stick a little bit, but it was easy enough to clean. I’ve made honey glazed salmon before, and I like this recipe a lot better, because the maple gives it a nice flavor. My extremely picky 15 year old son loved it.

Pretty good flavor, but be careful because the maple will most definitely burn in your pan at this high of a temp. 25 minutes is also much too long, even for thick 1.5” center-cut pieces. I’d recommend checking it around 15 minutes. I could not taste the dill at all, so if you’re looking for dill flavor, definitely increase the amount, or sprinkle fresh dill over top right before serving. I’d also recommend cooking more than 1 pound if you are expecting to serve 4 people.

It was fine

My family loves this salmon recipe. It’s difficult to believe that it is so simple to prepare. I do often let it marinate a bit longer. And this time I put it in a small skillet and cooked it on the hot (375 degree) propane grill for about 20 minutes so as not to have to heat up the oven. (I do reduce the amount of the marinade so as not to have to waste ingredients.)

This was good. I like the idea of adding a bit of Dijon for a flavor boost and maybe some grated fresh ginger. I also think I would give it more time to marinate – perhaps an hour or two.

Excellent and easy! I added a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the marinade to punch up the flavor just a bit and it was delicious. I grilled it on a pizza stone in our kamodo grill for 10 minutes, then added a splash of lime juice when plated. Served with a side of garlicky orzo pasta and a nice glass of Pinot Noir.

Very easy , adds sweetness to the salmon, but not overly heavy. I would just say you could probably use less marinade and save on your maple syrup.

Quick, delicious and easy. I have made this several times and it always comes out great!
