12 oz Scottish salmon, two 6 ounce filets deboned - but you can leave the skin on
kosher salt to season
black pepper to season

¼ cup vegenaise regular mayonnaise will work as well
2 teaspoons gochujang you can substitute sriracha
1 teaspoon liquid aminos soy sauce will work as well but you will need to use 1.5 teaspoons. Also, this recipe will no longer be gluten free.
1-2 teaspoons maple syrup

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
Debone your salmon filets and season them with kosher salt and pepper. Option to score the skin to prevent it from buckling and constricting as it bakes.
Grab a small mixing bowl and combine vegenaise, gochujang, maple syrup and liquid aminos. Once well mixed, spoon the spicy creamy sauce evenly on top of the salmon filets. Make sure they are both well covered.
Bake for 12-15 minutes at 350 degrees. Option to broil for an additional 2-3 minutes until the everything gets lightly browned on top. Your salmon will be a medium well temperature.
Cooking time will slightly vary based on the size and thickness of the salmon fillet.
Serve and enjoy.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
