Ingredients

1 pound wild salmon fillet (copper river is the best!)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

3 tablespoons apricot jam or preserves

3 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

2 teaspoons soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 450°F.

Cut fillets into equal servings. Pat salmon dry and season with salt and pepper; place skin side down on greased or parchment-lined (for easy clean up) rimmed baking sheet.

In small bowl, stir together jam, ginger and soy sauce - and red pepper if you want to add some spicy-hot to it. Spread evenly over salmon.

Roast 10 to 15 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily. The glaze may caramelize a bit.

Looks great. Might work on chicken too.

You're right..It IS grrrreat! I use a very similar recipe as a marinade for salmon that I'm going to grill out. I tried yours instead and it came out good beyond words.

I'd love to use this on some grilled salmon..
but wouldn't it stick to the grill?...

may be best to save for winter and just bake...
sounds delish!

thanks!

The best thing to do when grilling fish is to thinly slice a lemon, orange, some citrus like that and place it under the fish when grilling and it wont stick.

3rd fish recipe from this group and we are thrilled. This one is simple delish. The apricot jam blends in with the soy sauce and ginger so well. Thanks for sharing.

Fantastic. I couldn't find any wild salmon, so I used the apricot glaze on chicken, and the whole family enjoyed it. Cannot wait to try it on salmon, when I get my hands on some!

I'm sure it was great on chicken - would probably pair well with a Moroccan couscous with dried fruits mixed in - yummie! You can always used Atlantic/farm-raised salmon, but since living in Northwest for nearly a decade, I turn my nose at anything other than wild-caught.

For sticking - usually the fillet has skin on one side. So, you'd put it skin-side down on the grill or a greased broiling pan for oven
