The Maine Avenue Fish Market was calling to me on the way home from errands tonight, so I swung through to pick up some salmon. I brushed it with a mixture of maple syrup, olive oil, mustard and salt and pepper then tossed it on the grill pan. The glaze made it sweet and crispy on the outside while the inside remained melt-in-your mouth smooth. I steamed some broccoli, squirted some fresh lemon juice on it and enjoyed a fresh summery dinner in probably 20 minutes.
What’s your favorite summer evening meal?

Delicious! I’m allergic to salmon – but YUM! I just love it and the way you made it is amazing! I have to say I love a good Greek Salad in the summer! GREAT post!
Well I highly recommend the combination of mustard and syrup for a glaze for other things, too — the flavors work so well together! I bet it would be good on chicken or ham as well.
And PS – I love Greek salad on a hot night too!
