I saw this recipe on Andrea’s @ Making It Healthy blog and had to try it since we were having salmon a few days later. I mostly followed the directions, and wow was this a hit! Her original recipe calls for fresh onion, garlic, and ginger, but I used their powdered counterparts and this maple teriyaki salmon turned out fantastic.
She adapted the recipe from this one at AllRecipes.com, and chose to grill it. I just tossed them in a skillet and cooked them on the stove top. instead because honestly, while its nice grilling weather, we’re broke and charcoal costs a little more than we’ve got right now.
I served this with brown rice and broccoli, and I poured the leftover marinade over the rice.
