Asian Glazed Salmon

I'm lucky living in the Pacific Northwest. Fresh wild salmon is pretty easy to find--sometimes at a price. Salmon is a notoriously fatty fish, of course, but most of the fat is of the heart-healthy kind.

Prep Time: 30 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
• 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tbsp chopped scallions
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 4 5-ounce salmon fillets

Preparation:

Combine maple syrup, ginger, soy sauce, lime juice and scallions in a large resealable plastic bag. Add salmon fillets. Seal, pressing out excess air, and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Preheat broiler or grill. Coat broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray. If grilling, spray grill before preheating.

Remove salmon from plastic bag, reserving marinade, and place on broiler rack or grill. Cook for 10 minutes until fish flakes easily. Brush with marinade once or twice during cooking.

Serves 4.
