Balsamic Glazed Salmon

We only use wild caught salmon for our recipes. That and farm raised salmon is just plain nasty (and bad for a number of reasons).



Salt and Pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 lb salmon steak

1/2 cup chicken broth (we use less sodium, its healthier)

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

6 teaspoons dark brown sugar

2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

1 teaspoon cornstarch

1/4 cup diagonally sliced green onions (white portion, mostly)



1. Place a grill pan over medium high heat until hot. Brush the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place fish on grill pan, skin side up, and cook for 3 minutes. While cooking in the pan, pre-heat the broiler. After 3 minutes, place fish on broiler pan and place in broiler. Cook for approximately 10 - 15 more minutes, until desired doneness.



2. Combine brother, vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and corn starch in a small sauce pan. Bring to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.



3. Spoon glaze over fish and top with sliced green onions.
