Maple Salmon

Maple Salmon features flaky, oven-baked fish coated in a glossy maple–soy–garlic glaze that balances sweetness with a touch of salt and peppery warmth. It’s a polished yet weeknight-ready main that pairs well with rice, greens, or roasted vegetables. Serve it when you want something fast that still feels special at the table.
