Blackberry Glazed Salmon
- 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- 1 pinch Salt And Pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cups Fresh Blackberries
- 1/2 cups Blackberry Jam
- 23 cups Hearty Red Wine (I Used A Cabernet Sauvignon)
- 4 whole 5-oz. Size Salmon Portions
- 1/4 cups Fresh Parsley Chopped For Garnish
- 1.
- Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet.
- When oil is hot, add garlic, salt and pepper and saute until garlic is fragrant and cooked through, about 1 minute (be careful not to burn it!)
- 2.
- Add fresh blackberries and blackberry jam to skillet and whisk until jam has broken down and formed a smooth sauce.
- 3.
- Whisk in red wine and bring to a simmer.
- Let the sauce cook for 3-4 minutes until it has thickened slightly.
- 3.
- Place salmon portions into the saucepan and spoon a few spoonfuls of sauce over the top of the fish.
- Continue cooking, spooning additional sauce over the fish every minute or so, until fish is flaky and cooked through (9-11 minutes, depending on how done you like your fish).
- The sauce should thicken considerably by this point, reducing to a nice glaze that you can spoon or brush over the fish just before serving.
- 4.
- Remove fish from pan and plate it.
- Top with a spoonful of the glaze (or brush it on with a pastry or silicone brush) and a few berries from the saucepan.
- Sprinkle fresh parsley on top (optional) and serve immediately.
- Serving suggestion: pair with a mixed greens salad and blackberry vinaigrette!
- If youve got extra glaze, whisk in a dash of red wine vinegar and use it as a warm dressing on a spinach salad with a bit of goat cheese.
- Yum!
