Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and olive oil. Reserve some marinade for drizzling later.
  2. Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let it sit for about 15-30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  3. Grill the Vegetables: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Toss the zucchini, bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred.
  4. Grill the Salmon: Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Serve: Plate the grilled salmon alongside the vegetables. Drizzle with reserved marinade and serve with lemon wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
