Ingredients
- ¼ cup raspberry preserves marmalade or other preserve. Cherry, mixed berry, blueberry strawberry, orange...all would be fabulous!
- 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce low sodium Tamari, liquid aminos or coconut aminos may be subbed or even try balsamic vinegar
- 2-3 garlic cloves minced or pressed
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper
- 4 - oz skin-on salmon fillets
Optional
- ⅛-¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes or just a few shakes
- Cayenne Pepper to taste
Garnish
- green onions thinly sliced or diced
- Lemon wedges
- toasted pine nuts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F and place rack in middle of oven. Spray or brush oil on a foil lined baking pan or cookie sheet.
- Make the glaze: Combine preserves, garlic, soy sauce, salt and pepper, stir until combined.
- Arrange salmon, skin side down, a couple inches apart and brush fish fillets evenly with about half of the glaze mixture. Bake a 450 for 4 minutes. Do not remove the fish from the oven, turn broiler to high and broil fish for 6 minutes on middle rack.
- Spoon remaining sweet glaze mixture onto the center of salmon fillets and broil for 3 more minutes or until desired doneness. Even a few minutes can overcook your salmon, trust the process. Garnish with finely chopped green onions and toasted pine nuts and serve with lemon wedge - optional of course.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
- Serve with couscous, quinoa, brown rice, rice pilaf and a delicious side of roasted vegetables.
- How do I know if my salmon is done:
- Gently press down on the top of the fillet with a fork or your finger. If the flesh of the salmon flakes (easily separates) then the fish is done.
- TIPS
- PREP | Once this recipe gets going it comes together quickly, so prep any side dishes and time to have them ready about the same time as the raspberry salmon.PRESERVES | Use your favorite preserves, a high quality jam or marmalade may also be used. I duo not recommend a jelly though, you want the fruit to shine through, not the sugar.CHANGE THE FRUIT | Not a fan of raspberries, try other fruit and even mixed fruit preserves.SOY SAUCE | Replace soy sauce with liquid aminos, coconut aminos, or Tamari. RASPBERRY BALSAMIC GLAZE | Swap out the soy sauce with balsamic vinegar for a yummy sweet & sour glaze.
