Instructions
1
Mix Glaze
Whisk together maple syrup and soy sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
2
Sear Salmon
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Season salmon with pepper and place skin side up. Cook for 4 minutes until golden on the bottom.

Glaze and Finish
Flip salmon fillets, pour maple soy glaze over the top, and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes basting occasionally until glaze caramelizes and salmon is cooked through.
Substitutions
pure maple syrup→honey for an equally sweet and sticky glaze
soy sauce→coconut aminos for a gluten free and lower sodium option
Common mistakes
Using too high heat after adding the glaze which causes it to burn rather than caramelize
Not patting salmon dry before cooking which prevents proper searing
