How to Make Salmon With Maple Chipotle Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a shallow baking dish, whisk together 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (finely chopped), 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Place salmon fillets (about 1.5 lbs total) in the baking dish, ensuring both sides are evenly coated with the marinade.
  4. Marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to 1 hour for a more intense flavor.
  5. Carefully pour off excess marinade from the baking dish into a small saucepan.
  6. Bring the marinade to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened to your desired consistency.
  7. Roast the salmon in the same baking dish for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  8. Serve the salmon immediately, drizzled with the warm maple-chipotle sauce.
  9. Garnish with 1/4 cup toasted cashews (optional).
