Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons raw brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
680 g skinless salmon fillets, cut into 4 portions
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to broil. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, paprika, sugar, and salt.
  • Generously sprinkle the chili powder mixture evenly over the tops of the salmon fillets.
  • Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet and broil for 6-9 minutes, depending on how thick your fillets are and how crispy you prefer the crust.
  • Remove the salmon from the oven and brush the maple syrup over the tops to coat the spice rub. Return to the oven and broil for an additional 1-2 minutes until the maple syrup is bubbling and has formed a crust. Serve immediately.
