Hmmmm.... Made this for my fiance and I last night. I think he would vote to not have it again, although he seemed to like it a bit more than I did. I was hoping to recreate a similar dish I had on the Disney Wonder last year. Animator's Palate served an AWESOME maple glazed salmon over mashed red potatoes with a side of steamed green beans that was TO DIE FOR (and that's saying a lot since I am not a huge fish fan!)!!! This recipe didn't even compare (IMHO). The sauce is only mildly sweet. There seems to be too much garlic (and I LOVE The stuff - 40 clove garlic chicken please!!!). Since my fiance picked up 1 lb. worth of salmon steaks, I used those instead, but would have prefered filets. I pretty much followed STARFLOWER's directions exactly except for wrapping each steak (there were two) in a double thickness of aluminum foil and drizzling with just a little of the maple syrup/glaze. I baked them, covered, for 20 minutes and then broiled, slightly opened for another 3. I made a sauce with the remaining glaze by heating over med-high heat and adding 1 T cornstarch mixed with 2 T cold water. I'm sure glad cleanup was a breeze because I don't think the end result would be worth it otherwise. Served with Country Crock brand mashed red potatoes and Green Giant honey carrots I picked up in my grocer's frozen foods section (I wanted dinner to be quick tonight), this was an "OK" meal. Thanks for sharing your idea, STARFLOWER :)
