SALMON4.jpg

Ingredients:

SALMON1.jpg

2 tablespoons of maple or syrup

1 ½ tablespoons apple juice

1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

1 ½ tablespoons of fresh ginger (bottled ginger will suffice)

1 ½ tablespoon of Dijon mustard

¼ teaspoon five-spice powder

4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets

Cooking spray

Lo Note: The original recipe called for maple syrup and apple juice.  But I had neither of those.  I had some Agave in the Raw and apple cider so I made it work.

Directions:

1. Combine syrup, apple juice, lemon juice, hoisin, ginger, mustard and five-spice in a bowl.  Baste fish with mixture and refrigerate for ten minutes.

2. place fillets, skin side down, on a broiler rack coated with cooking spray.

3. Broil for 10-12 minutes, or until fish flakes easily.

4. Use remaining marinade for basting after food is plated.

I really love salmon and tilapia recipes because they are always so quick and (fairly) fool proof. Also, the recipes are simple and I almost always have all the ingredients, with the exception of the apple horseradish salmon…there is always a trip to the market involved in making that.
