Salmon with Balsamic Reduction
A Balsamic Vinegar Reduction to Accompany Salmon Ingredients:
Half a cup of aged balsamic vinegar
Half a cup of chicken broth
1 tsp of fresh thyme, finely chopped
¾ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
2 lb Salmon fillets, cut to give six pieces of equal size
2 tsps of canola or grape seed oil
Method:
In a pan that will not react to the vinegar mix vinegar and chicken broth and bring to a simmer for up to twenty five minutes or until the quantity has reduced by fifty percent.
Meanwhile mix the other dry ingredients which include the thyme, salt and pepper and cover the top of the salmon by rubbing in these ingredients. Heat the oil in a skillet and add the salmon with the skin side on top. The salmon fillets should be cooked for up to six minutes and turning regularly so that the salmon begins to flake but is still pink in the center. This process should be repeated for each piece of salmon.
To serve, drizzle your balsamic over each piece of salmon and accompany with fluffy mashed potatoes. To compensate for the richness of the salmon there is a higher quantity of vinegar and a lighter vegetable oil in this recipe.
