Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened slightly.
2
While the glaze is simmering, season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a small amount of oil to the pan. Sear the salmon fillets for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and the skin is crispy.
3
Once the salmon fillets are cooked, brush them with the maple glaze and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze is caramelized and sticky.
