Salmon – Simple FODMAP

I loved this maple salmon recipe.. but I thought they needed an update to be low FODMAP and let’s face it not enough sauce. It was the best part. Here’s my interpretation of that recipe, and I think if you tastes both side by side, mine has the edge as it keeps it simple, but with a small twist really brings out the flavour, that makes this dish a standout. It’s great served with Quinoa and Broccoli.

Ingredients

1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup soy sauce (gluten free)
2 tbsp garlic infused oil
0.5 tap ground pepper
1 pound salmon
1/2 tsp Corn Starch optional

Instructions

Turn oven on to 400f, place dish you will cook salmon into the oven.
Mix maple syrup, soy sauce, garlic oil, salt & pepper together.
Once dish is hot remove from oven.
Pour a little bit of the maple mixture into the dish.
Place salmon into the dish
Pour remaining maple mixture over salmon
Cook for 20 mins.
Optional: If you are feeling frisky, turning the fish over after 10 mins. If you aren’t, do as the Beetles say “just let it ‘B'”. I like to let it be.
Remove salmon from baking dish.

Optional:

Speak out loud "You know I have an idea". (Claim the credit for coming up with the next steps… please I think it's a better show to pretend you just thought of it.)
Pour maple mixture from the baking dish into a sauce pot. Bring it to a mild boil, stirring constantly. (Optionally add 1/2 tsp of cornstarch to thicken, I like to thicken it, but it's up to your taste)
Reduce maple mixture by half. (Should take 3-4 minutes.)
Drizzle maple (goodness) reduction over fish. (Take all the credit for this idea, it’s the best part.)

Notes

You don’t have to wait for oven to hit 400f before placing the dish in the oven if the dish is hot. Just “throw it in”.

This is a great dish to serve with quinoa and broccoli.

You can totally do this ahead as a marinade. Make sauce, throw Salmon and sauce in a ziplock and leave it for at least 2 hours. Remove fish from ziplock and toss into the oven as recipe directs you to but here’s where things change do not add any sauce into the heated baking dish. Instead keep the marinade to reduce in the sauce pan. This allows you to reduce the sauce while salmon is cooking, and really amps up the flavour.
