Pan Seared Salmon With Citrus Vinegar Glaze

Introduction

This is a nice, simple Salmon recipe that I think brings out the flavor of a good piece of Salmon. This went well with brocolli, but would go excellent over polenta or a risotto cake. This was adapted from a recipe by Rachel Ray (yikes).

Ingredients

• 2 Tablespoons Oil
• Salmon Filets, ~6oz each

• 1/2 c Dry White Wine
• 1/2 c Balsamic Vinegar
• 4 Tablespoons Orange Juice
• 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
• 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar

• Salt
• Ground Black Pepper

Method

Glaze

• Mix the Wine, Vinegar, Orange Juice, Lemon Juice, and Brown Sugar in a saucepot.
• Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
• After the sauce comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer.
• When the sauce has thickened, stir in 1/2 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper and remove from the heat.

Salmon

• Season one side of the salmon with a little salt and pepper.
• Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
• When the pan is hot, add the oil.
• Place the salmon filets to the pan, seasoned side down. Now the season other side.
• After about 3 minutes, flip the salmon. It should be golden brown and delicious.
• After about another three minutes, the salmon should be done.

• Place the salmon on your plate and drizzle about 1 Tablespoon of the glaze over the salmon.
