Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp maple syrup, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
Step 2: Place 4 salmon fillets skin-side down on the baking sheet and brush each generously with the maple-mustard glaze.
Step 3: Drizzle 1 tbsp olive oil evenly over the fillets to promote browning.
Step 4: Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until salmon flakes easily with a fork and the glaze is caramelized but not burnt.
Step 5: Remove from oven and let rest for 2 minutes before serving with fresh lemon wedges to squeeze over the top.
