Preparation

Step 1

1. PREPARE THE SALMON: Combine the soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, lime juice, agave nectar, garlic, ginger, salt and white pepper in a large, shallow dish. Add the salmon fillets and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour, turning a few times.

2. MAKE THE GLAZE: Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk the pomegranate molasses with the agave nectar, soy sauce, garlic, fresh ginger and lime zest.

3. Preheat the broiler. Transfer the salmon fillets to a large rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and brush with half of the glaze. Broil 4 inches from the heat for about 3 minutes, until the fillets begin to brown. Brush the fillets with the remaining glaze and broil for about 3 minutes longer, until richly glazed and the fish is just cooked through. Transfer the fillets to plates. Garnish
with the edamame and pomegranate seeds and serve with Armenian Rice.

WINE Tart and lightly sweet, this glazed
salmon will go best with a white that has
good acidity and its own touch of sweetness.
