Ingredients

  • 4 Arctic Char fillets, skin on
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil, for greasing

Мethod of preparation

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly oil a baking sheet. In a bowl, mix together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Season your Arctic Char fillets with salt and pepper, then lay them skin-side down on the baking sheet. Generously brush the maple mixture over the fillets. Sprinkle the finely chopped pecans over the glazed fillets, pressing them slightly to adhere. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the pecan crust is beautifully golden. Serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a wedge of lemon, to add a fresh, citrusy contrast to the dish's rich flavors.
