Maple Glazed Grilled Salmon


We are going to Seattle for Thanksgiving. I want Salmon. So this is the recipe we love: (Just got back---fresh Salmon is expensive, but it melts in your mouth)


3/4 cup maple syrup (real)
2 Tab ketchup
1 Tab Brown Sugar
1 Tab cider Vinegar
1 Tab Worcestershire sauce (without wheat)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground mustard
1/8 tsp hot pepper sauce (ie Texas Pete)
1 salmon fillet (2 pounds)
Heavy foil
zip lock bag

In bowl combine first 8 ingredients. Mix well. Pour 1/2 a cup of this into a bag with the Salmon.
Refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate the rest of the marinade.

Spray grill--cook Salmon with grill cover on. Skin side up over medium heat 2-4 minutes. Grill on other side for 2-4 minutes. IF NO SKIN--then put double thickness of heavy foil. Put some of reserve marinade over salmon and fold foil around and seal tightly. Grill 5-6 minutes or until fish flakes then brush with the rest of the marinade (which you have heated). Ok to cook in oven too.IN the oven a small piece takes about 15 min at 400--but you have to watch it!

In oven you can just place the foil under the fish, leaving the top open. Cook about 10-15 minutes or until temperature reaches around 135 F let sit till reaches 145 f
