Maple-Roasted Salmon Brûlée
There is nothing better to me than simply roasting salmon. A little olive oil, salt & pepper and you’re done! It’s quick, it’s easy and it brings out the lovely flavor of the fish.
But, if you want to take it up a notch, try brushing on a marinade of maple syrup, coarse-grained mustard, garlic and lemon juice. Turn on the broiler for a couple of minutes to get a nice crust and you have a dinner worthy of serving to guests.
Enjoy the simplicity of it all!
