Instructions

Whisk together maple syrup, soy sauce/coconut aminos, garlic, ginger and sriracha in a large bowl.
Place salmon into the bowl and toss to coat in the marinade.
Cover and let marinate for 30-60 minutes. (Note: I would not marinate this salmon for much more than an hour, as it seems to toughen the fish if left in the marinade too long.) ⁠⠀
Preheat grill to medium heat. Place salmon directly on the grill and cover.
Flip the salmon after 5-6 minutes and grill for an additional 5-8 minutes (possibly longer, depending on thickness of your salmon), or until salmon easily flakes with a fork.⁠⠀
