Maple Glazed Salmon

Hey there– Well, schools out.  So Friday was my first day of summer, just the time for  a light meal on a long summer evening.   Salmon, hot from the broiler along with roasted banana squash and a bright green salad with nectarine and boysenberries, just picked outside the kitchen door–with a sweet tarragon dressing.  Add a chunk of rosemary garlic bread.  Just right.

MAPLE GLAZED SALMON
2 6 oz. salmon filets
cooking spray
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. sea salt
2 tab. maple syrup

Combine the paprika, chili powder, cumin, sugar and salt.  Spray your pan with cooking spray and set on the salmon.  Coat the top of the fish with the spice mixture. Cook under the boiler on medium for 5 to 6 minutes until just about done.  Drizzle on the maple syrup and broil for 1 minute more.  Serve it up hot and just a bit spicy.  Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
