4 servings
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Chef's tipSwap it in for an equal amount of the oil or butter the recipe cooks with - do not add it on top of the existing fat. - 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
Ingredient noteThough high-fat foods can worsen reflux, this recipe has only a small amount of butter (~3/4 teaspoon per serving), making it likely fine for many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid butter, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 3 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
- ¼ tsp salt, or to taste
Instructions
- 1
Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until it shimmers. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, about 1 minute. Watch closely — garlic can brown quickly at this stage.

Pour in the maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and water. Stir to combine and raise the heat to medium. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon and a finger drawn through leaves a clear line, about 4–5 minutes.
