Title: Mel's Maple Pecan Crusted Salmon
Categories: Seafood, Nuts, Sauces
Yield: 5 servings
2 lb Salmon fillets
2 tb Butter
1/3 c "pure" maple syrup
1 ts Worcestershire sauce
1/2 ts Salt
1/4 ts Pepper
1/2 ts Ground mustard
1/2 c Pecans; chopped fine
Salt; for sprinkling
Fresh lemon wedges; for
- serving
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Stir in the maple
syrup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and ground
mustard. Stir over medium heat until the mixture is
warmed through, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat and
let cool to room temperature.
While the marinade is cooling, pour the pecans into a
dry skillet and heat over medium heat, tossing
frequently, until golden and toasted. Remove from heat;
let the pecans cool to room temperature and then chop
finely.
Take your Salmon fillets and slice them up into
individual serving pieces. Place the salmon fillets in a
gallon-sized ziploc bag. Pour the maple marinade over
the salmon, coating the salmon pieces evenly. Seal the
bag and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
set the oven @ 325°F/165°C.
Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly spray with
nonstick cooking spray.
Place the toasted, chopped pecans on a plate or shallow
pie dish. Remove the salmon from the refrigerator. Dip
the top side of each salmon fillet in the pecan crumbs
pressing the salmon lightly into the pecans so they
adhere to the top of the salmon. Place the fillets
pecan-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the
salmon with a pinch of salt.
Bake the salmon for 20-22 minutes until cooked through
but still tender inside (not overcooked). The salmon
should flake easily with a fork but still be soft and
not dry. Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.
