How to cook it

5 steps

Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with foil. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the sheet and season with the salt and pepper.
Step 2
Melt the butter in a small saucepan; whisk in the maple syrup, dijon mustard, and garlic, and simmer 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.
Step 3
Brush the glaze generously over the salmon fillets and squeeze the juice of half the lemon over the top.
Step 4
Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches 145°F.
Step 5
Slice the remaining lemon half into wedges and serve alongside the baked salmon.
