UNCLE BILL'S SALMON MARINATED IN MAPLE SYRUP AND SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• in a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, maple syrup, orange juice, lime juice, garlic and ginger; mix well.
• Place salmon filets in a casserole dish that is large enough for the filets, skin side down.
• Pour the marinating mixture over the salmon and coat well.
• Turn salmon fillets with the flesh side down, cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in refrigerator from 1 to 3 hours or overnight.
• To speed up the marinate time, prick holes in the salmon with a fork and marinate for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Heat butter and oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
• Place marinated filets flesh side down into the hot pan and sear for 2 minutes or until lightly browned on the flesh side.
• Using an oven proof casserole dish, transfer the salmon and place into the dish, skin side down.
• Pour the pan juices and the marinade over the salmon.
• Sprinkle salmon with dried dill weed.
• Bake in preheated 400 F oven (uncovered) for 5 to 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
• The salmon should be firm, but not dry; do not overcook.
• Serve with Apple Chutney spooned over the top if desired or use any favorite sauce of your choice.
• For those who find sweetness overtakes the flavor of salmon, I suggest that you reduce the Maple Syrup to 1/4 cup.
• This recipe can be doubled without any problems.

Close the lid on the grill, and whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, butter, lime juice, and lime zest.
