Maple Glazed Salmon

You could call this a Crabtree family favorite. It is our go-to salmon recipe. It has the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. Aaron and I make this more than regularly too. We even splurged for the real maple syrup (trust us, it's worth it).

The first picture is when I made this two weeks ago and the other is from January. I felt it necessary to include the January picture because it is prettier and in much better lighting. 



2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground ancho chile powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon sea or kosher salt
4 (6 oz) salmon filets
cooking spray
1 tablespoon maple syrup

1. Prepare grill, heating to medium.

2. Combine first 5 ingredients. Sprinkle fish with salt; rub with paprika mixture.

3. Place fish on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 7 minutes. Drizzle fish with maple syrup; grill 1 minute or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
