Smoky Maple Baked Salmon over Garlic Corn

How to make Smoky Maple Baked Salmon over Garlic Corn Recipe -  This simple yet impressive salmon dish has those irresistible sweet and smoky flavor combinations going on. The salmon is lightly seasoned with a smoky rub, then brushed with sweet maple syrup, and baked in under 20 minutes. My boys love to help measure out the spices for the rub, place them in a bowl, and stir. I serve the fish on top of a bed of garlic corn with a simple salad.

Ingredients:
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
3⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
3⁄4 teaspoon smoked paprika
4 salmon fillets (11⁄2 to 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro

Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a medium baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Add 3⁄4 teaspoon of the salt, 1⁄2 teaspoon of the pepper, and the paprika to a small bowl and mix to combine. Season both sides of the salmon fillets with the rub and place on the baking sheet. Brush the maple syrup over the tops of the fillets and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.

3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the corn, cilantro, and the remaining 1⁄4 teaspoon salt and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring, until hot, about 3 minutes. Serve each plate with 1⁄2 cup of the corn and a piece of salmon on top.
