Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 (1 1/2-pound) skin-on salmon fillet
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Dill sprigs (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275°F. Whisk oil, maple syrup, and cardamom in a small bowl. Place salmon in a large baking dish and brush with cardamom syrup on all sides. Marinate at room temperature 30 minutes.
  • Season each side of salmon with 1 tsp. salt. Bake until salmon is firm but still pink in the center, 22-25 minutes (if you prefer salmon more well done, cook an additional 5 minutes).
  • Flake salmon into large pieces and arrange on a platter. Top with dill, if using.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet: Opt for a thick, center-cut fillet for even cooking and a succulent texture.
  • Marinate the salmon: Marinating the salmon in the maple-cardamom mixture enhances its flavor and keeps it moist during cooking.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the salmon, make sure to give each fillet enough space in the pan to prevent steaming.
  • Cook the salmon until it's just cooked through: Overcooking can dry out the salmon, so cook it just until it reaches an internal temperature of 125°F (52°C).
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Once cooked, serve the salmon right away to enjoy it at its best.

Conclusion:

This cardamom maple salmon is a delightful and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
