Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400ºF. If desired, line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean up.

- Return to oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes or until an instant read thermometer reads 145ºF and fish flakes easily with a fork. (An internal temperature of 145ºF is my personal preference for salmon, but feel free to cook it to whatever temperature you like!). Enjoy immediately!

MAPLE-BAKED SALMON
Salmon baked at a low temperature until medium-rare delivers a silky texture that tastes special enough to make it a festive centerpiece. This easy dish works any night of the week, since it comes together in less than half an hour. Maple syrup sweetens the glaze, which gets a savory pop from whole mustard seeds in Dijon. Even though salmon is naturally fatty, a dollop of mayonnaise adds extra richness while thickening the glaze to help it seal onto the fish. The herbaceous aroma of cilantro stems baked into the sauce brightens the dish, as do tender leaves scattered on top. Fill out your feast with any combination of steamed rice, roasted potatoes, green beans or salad.

Steps:
- Remove salmon from the refrigerator. Heat oven to 325 degrees.
- Bundle the cilantro sprigs by their stems and hold them tightly, then slice the stems crosswise until you get to the leaves. Reserve leaves for garnish. Transfer sliced stems to a small bowl and stir in the maple syrup, mustard and mayonnaise until well mixed.
- Season the salmon all over with salt and pepper and place in a baking dish, skin-side down if there is skin. Slather the maple sauce all over the top.
- Bake until a paring knife slides into the center with only a little resistance, 15 to 20 minutes. When you remove the knife and touch the blade to your upper lip, it should feel very warm but not hot. The salmon will continue to heat through out of the oven while in the baking dish. Top with the reserved cilantro leaves, and squeeze lemon wedges all over just before serving.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, ensure all your ingredients are prepped and measured. This will make the cooking process smoother and more efficient.
- Choose Fresh Salmon: Opt for fresh salmon fillets or steaks for the best flavor and texture.
- Glaze Consistency: The maple-lemon glaze should be thick and syrupy. If it's too thin, simmer it for a few minutes until it reduces and thickens.
- Baste Regularly: Baste the salmon with the glaze every few minutes during cooking. This will help keep it moist and flavorful.
- Cook to Desired Doneness: The internal temperature of the salmon should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 155°F (68°C) for medium.
- Rest Before Serving: Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and result in a more succulent dish.
Conclusion:
This delectable salmon with maple-lemon glaze is a perfect combination of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors. The glaze beautifully complements the delicate taste of the salmon, creating a dish that is both elegant and comforting. Whether you're hosting a special occasion dinner or simply seeking a delicious weeknight meal, this recipe is sure to impress.
