Balsamic-Glazed Salmon Fillets
Salmon fillets brushed with a tangy-sweet balsamic reduction, baked or pan-seared until caramelized. Deep, slightly fruity flavors pair beautifully with roasted vegetables or herbed grains.
Ingredients
- 6 (5 ounce) salmon fillets 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon white wine 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar 4 teaspoons dijon mustard salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Coat a small saucepan with non-stick cooking spray. Over medium heat, cook and stir garlic until soft, about 3 minutes. Mix in white wine, honey, balsamic vinegar, mustard, and salt and pepper.
- Simmer, uncovered, for about 3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Arrange salmon fillets on foil-lined baking sheet. Brush fillets with balsamic glaze, and sprinkle with oregano.
- Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 14 minutes, or until flesh flakes easily with a fork. Brush fillets with remaining glaze, and season with salt and pepper. Use a spatula to transfer fillets to serving platter, leaving the skin behind on the foil.
