Maple Barbecued Salmon

Maple Syrup and Salmon go great together. This is a perfect summer recipe as it makes a light and delicious meal. You could also try this recipe with our Maple BBQ Sauce.

This recipe is from Saltscapes.

4-6    salmon fillets, skin attached
1 cup (250 mL)     maple syrup
1     small onion, chopped
2     tablespoons (30 mL)     apple cider vinegar
1     tablespoon (15 mL)     Worcestershire sauce
1-2    teaspoons (5-10 mL)     pepper sauce
1     teaspoon (5 mL)     salt
1     teaspoon (5 mL)     dry mustard

Prepare sauce by combining syrup, onion, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, pepper sauce, salt, and dry mustard in a small pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer for 4 or 5 minutes and set aside to cool.

Sauce can be stored in the refrigerator before using.

Heat barbecue to medium-hot. Lightly paint salmon with the maple glaze and lay the fillets skin-side up on the grill. Carefully turn fillets and continue to cook skin-side down. Baste fish with glaze several times as it continues to cook. Fish is done when it easily flakes, about 8 to 10 minutes.
