Balsamic glazed salmon fillets are a quick and easy but elegant dish perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The key to this dish is the balsamic glaze, a rich, tangy sauce made from balsamic vinegar and honey brushed onto the salmon fillets before they are baked or grilled. The glaze adds a beautiful caramelized crust to the salmon and locks in its moisture, resulting in a flaky, tender fish with a delicious sweet and savory flavor.

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 (5 ounce) salmon fillets
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon white wine
1 tablespoon honey
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
salt, to taste
ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F 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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillets. Look for fillets that are about 1 inch thick and have a deep pink or orange color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a lot of white streaks.
  • Pat the salmon fillets dry before cooking. This will help the glaze adhere to the fish.
  • Use a good quality balsamic glaze. A thick, syrupy glaze will give the salmon the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it just until it is opaque in the center. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the salmon immediately. Balsamic glazed salmon is best when served hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Balsamic glazed salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is moist and flaky, and the glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
