Quick & Easy Balsamic Salmon











Adapted from Clean Eating Magazine. If you don't like spicy foods, simply omit the red pepper flakes.
Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • 2 wild caught salmon fillets (about 3-4 oz each)
  • ½ Tablespoon coconut oil (or olive oil)
  • ½ Tablespoon honey
  • 3 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
  1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium to high heat. Season both sides of salmon with salt and pepper. Add salmon to skillet and cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  2. While the salmon is cooking, whisk together honey, vinegar and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Add vinegar mixture to skillet and simmer until fish is fork-tender and liquid reduces and thickens, about 5 minutes. For a thicker, reduced sauce, simmer for 5 to 10 additional minutes. Just make sure you don't overcook the salmon.
