Maple Mustard Salmon With Marinated Leeks
- 3-4 pounds salmon ?llet, skin intact
- 4 leeks (white & light green parts only) cleaned, halved, quartered & finely sliced
- 3 meyer lemons, sliced in 1/4 inch (regular lemons will do as well)
- 1/2 cup mustard Moutarde de Meaux
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 3/4 cup white wine (anything you'd readily drink)
- Salt & pepper
- Mix the mustard and maple syrup together until well combined, season well with salt and pepper. Coat the trout with the mixture and place in the fridge to marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Prepare 2 large sheets of aluminum foil. In a shallow baking pan, place the sliced leeks and top with sliced lemons. Lay the fish on top of the leeks & lemons and top with more of the maple mustard marinade. Place the other sheet of foil and bring up the edges of the foil, crease together and then fold to seal tightly except for 1 corner. Pour the wine into the packet and seal the last corner.
- Bake until the fish is just cooked through, while remaining slightly pink in the center - about 25 to 35 minutes depending on the thickness of the salmon. To test for doneness, open the packet and pierce with a fork. Serve with the leeks.
