By á-46

Ingredients

• Glaze:
• 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed or chopped
• Salmon:
• Four 6-ounce center-cut salmon fillets, skinned
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Preparation

Step 1

For the glaze: In a small saucepan, bring the vinegar, maple syrup, mustard and garlic to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thick, about 12 minutes. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.


For the salmon: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the salmon on the baking sheet. Drizzle both sides of the salmon with the olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
