Maple Balsamic Glazed Salmon

Posted by in Fish, Taste | 7 comments

There are a lot of things I consider a pantry must have, balsamic vinegar happens to be in that category. It’s beyond versatile and can be used to make a million things. One of which is to drizzle it on fresh, ripe, juicy strawberries. Go ahead, do it. You’ll thank me. You can send me a bottle of really good balsamic to thank me ; ) But today we’re using it as a glaze for salmon. Did you swoon. You should.

Would you believe it only takes 20 minutes top to bottom to make that succulent slab of salmon. It’s true and just 4 simple ingredients. Don’t take my word for it, I saved that bite just for you to see for yourselves ; )

 

Baci!
