Flaky delicious salmon perfectly seasoned with Southwestern Rub, glazed with maple and honey topped with crunchy pecans
Ingredients
2-pound salmon fillet
2 tablespoons of Southwestern Dry Rub
1/2 cup of maple syrup
1/2 cup of honey
3/4 cup of chopped pecans
fresh chopped chives
Directions
Remove the belly flap and tail section from a 2-pound salmon fillet. Feel the fillet and remove any pin bones you may encounter. Cut the fish into smaller even-sized fillets
Preheat your oven to 400 F. Place the fillets onto a sheet of parchment paper on a sheet pan. Sprinkle each fillet with the dry rub. Allow the fish to sit for 6-8 minutes to allow the rub to permeate the flesh
Whisk the maple syrup and honey together. Brush over the salmon fillets. Sprinkle each fillet with chopped pecans
Place into the oven and cook 8-10 minutes or until a knife easily pierces the fillet when inserted in the thickest part
Using a fish turned remove the salmon from its skin. Sprinkle with fresh chopped chives and serve
