Orange Balsamic Glazed Salmon


What you need,

For the glaze,

1 8-10oz. salmon fillet, enough for 2 people
1 tsp. grated orange peel
1 tsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tsp. honey
¼ tsp. salt

For the dipping sauce,

3 tbsp. orange juice
1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tsp. honey
Salt and pepper to taste

In a small bowl whisk together the orange peel, balsamic vinegar, honey and salt.

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the salmon skin side down on the parchment paper. Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season well with salt and pepper.  Brush the glaze mixture all over the salmon.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the salmon is cooked through

Meanwhile make the dipping sauce by whisking together the orange juice, balsamic vinegar, honey and salt and pepper.  It is a very thin sauce but very tasty.

Serve the salmon with the dipping sauce.
