My brother-in-law once made a sweet glaze for salmon. I lightened up a similar recipe. Grilling gives the salmon palate-pleasing taste and eye-appealing flair, making it perfect for weeknight suppers as well as weekend dinner parties.—Kate Selner, St. Paul, Minnesota Ingredients:
3/4 cup maple syrup |
2 tablespoons ketchup |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
1 tablespoon cider vinegar |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard |
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce |
1 salmon fillet (2 pounds) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Pour 1/2 cup into a large resealable plastic bag; add the salmon. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
2. Drain and discard marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill salmon skin side up over medium-hot heat for 2-4 minutes.
3. Transfer to a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 17 in. x 21 in.). Spoon some of the reserved marinade over salmon. Fold foil around fillet and seal tightly. Grill 5-6 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Open slowly to allow steam to escape.
4. Brush with remaining marinade. Yield: 8 servings.
