Smoky Maple-Glazed Salmon Fillets

Ingredients

• 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skin-on
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

1. 1

   In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper to create the glaze.

2. 2

   Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Lightly brush both sides with olive oil.

3. 3

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Make sure your grates are clean and oiled to prevent sticking.

4. 4

   Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the hot grill. Close the lid and cook for 6-8 minutes.

5. 5

   Brush the flesh side of the salmon generously with the maple glaze. Flip the fillets carefully.

6. 6

   Continue grilling for another 6-8 minutes, brushing with more glaze every few minutes, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

7. 7

   Remove from the grill and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving with fresh lemon wedges.
