Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
  3. Step 3: Place salmon fillets on the baking sheet. Brush the glaze over the top, ensuring even coverage. Roast for 12-15 minutes until the glaze is caramelized and the salmon is flaky.

How do I store leftover Martin's Maple Glazed Salmon?
