Beautiful Val from More than a Burnt Toast recently announced that a contest was being held at Marx Foods... guest Star: Salmon. Check the site and participate in the event with a Salmon recipe! Here is mine :D
Ingredients for 4 servings: 500 grs. of Salmon, 6 garlic cloves, 1 green onion, 1 spoontable of thyme, 100 grs of honey, 1 dl of balsamic vinegar, 35 ml of soy sauce, 2 dl of fish stock (or water if you don't have any), some parsley, olive oil and salt.
- Finely mince the garlics and the onion and make them sweat in a sauce pan with some olive oil (3 to 4 spoontable aprox) and the thyme. When the onion gets transparent, add the honey and caramelize.
- Add the vinegar and the soy sauce, let it reduce for one minute and add the fish stock. Cook at low/medium fire until the sauce thickens.
- Preheat the oven at 160ºC.
- Wash and dry the salmon pieces and sprinkle some salt on top.
- Take another sauce pan and pour a little bit of oil, when hot, add the salmon with the skin down first and golden it a bit.
- Put the salmon in a recipient and pour the aromatic sauce on top. Place in the oven (middle rack) for 10 minutes.
- Mince the fresh parsley and when the salmon is ready and out of the oven sprinkle some thick sea salt on it and the parsley.
