Sweet and savory, this salmon dish is reminiscent of traditional teriyaki recipes (but without the added sugar and salt). Maple syrup is one of nature’s healthiest sweeteners, and gluten-free Tamari soy sauce brings the zing. I serve this dish on busy weeknights to elevate dinnertime without spending a ton of time in the kitchen.

Directions

1. Mix maple syrup, garlic (or garlic-infused olive oil), soy sauce, sea salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

2. In a small glass baking dish, place salmon and pour syrup mixture on top. Cover and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.

3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit / 200 degrees Celsius.

4. Remove fish from the refrigerator and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

5. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until desired doneness.
