How to Make Baked Maple Glazed Salmon With Wilted Spinach

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 8 minutes, or until slightly reduced and syrupy.
  4. Place two (6-ounce) salmon fillets on the prepared baking tray.
  5. Brush half of the maple glaze over the salmon fillets.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked through, brushing with the remaining glaze halfway through.
  7. Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over high heat.
  8. Add 5 ounces baby spinach and 1/2 cup sugar snap peas (optional). Cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes, until wilted.
  9. Season spinach with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  10. Divide the wilted spinach and salmon fillets among four serving plates. Drizzle any remaining glaze over the salmon.
