Grilled Salmon with Maple Syrup and Soy Sauce

Step 1
Combine soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic, ginger, pepper, and salt in a shallow container with a tight-fitting lid. Place salmon, flesh-side down, in the container and seal. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 2
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Once heated, turn down one side to low heat.

Step 3
Place salmon, skin-side down, over low heat on the preheated grill and close the lid. Allow to cook, basting once with reserved marinade, until easily flaked with a fork, about 20 minutes. Salmon will easily remove from the grill by sliding a spatula between salmon and the skin.
