Ingredients
3 medium cloves garlic, sliced
1 serrano chile, sliced
1-inch chunk fresh ginger, cut into 1/8-inch matchsticks
4 teaspoons fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
4 teaspoons maple syrup
4 six-ounce center-cut fillets salmon
Directions
Combine garlic, chile, ginger, cilantro, soy sauce, water, and maple syrup in gallon-sized zipper-lock bag. Add salmon and turn to coat. Squeeze out air, seal bag, and refrigerate for one hour, turning once after 30 minutes. Preheat broiler to high. Remove salmon from marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside. Transfer reserved marinade to small heavy-bottomed sauce pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat to medium, and simmer rapidly until reduced to about 1/4 cup. Set aside until ready to use. Broil salmon two inches from heat source until deep brown on surface and center of fillet reads 130 degrees on instant read thermometer for medium-rare, or 140 degrees for medium, 6 to 8 minutes. Glaze with reduced marinade, and serve immediately.
