Ingredients
Scale
- 4 fillets (6 oz each) Fresh Salmon Fillets
- 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
- 1/4 cup Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
- 3 Garlic Cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Ground Ginger

Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, minced garlic, ground ginger, and lemon juice until well combined.
- Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over them. Let them marinate for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat Your Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F or 190°C).
- Grill the Salmon: Remove salmon from marinade (reserve marinade). Place fillets skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, basting occasionally with leftover marinade.
