Primal Maple Salmon

This was a super fast, and simple, primal maple salmon filet.  This only took me about 20 minutes total from start to finish.  The flavors were awesome!  The maple syrup added a great sweetness to the salmon, and the mustard added some tangy flavors that complemented it.  

This made a great meal on a late night at the office when we didn’t have much time to cook.  If you can cook this on the grill, you may shave some time off, and the girl will add a crispy outer crust to the salmon that would be amazing.  Hopefully, you like it as much as we did!

Ingredients:

• 4 skin-on salmon fillets
• Salt and ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons grass fed butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, grease a glass baking dish with butter.
2. In a small bowl mix the syrup, butter, mustard, and vinegar. 
3. Pour over the salmon letting it marinade for 30 min skin side up; I did this part while I got the kids ready for bed.  Flip the filets so that the skin is down and bake for 15-20 min.
