Apricot-Balsamic Glazed Salmon

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup apricot preserves
• 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon finely minced fresh ginger root
• 1 clove of garlic, crushed
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 2 (6 ounce) salmon filets, skin removed

Directions

Preheat oven to 425° or pre-heat a grill. In small saucepan, heat preserves, vinegar, ginger, garlic and salt over low heat 3–4 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.

Remove from heat and cool slightly.

Place salmon fillets on a baking sheet, top with glaze and bake 10–12 minutes or just until salmon begins to flake. If using a grill, make a "pan" out of heavy duty aluminum foil, place the fish in the pan, top with glaze and grill for 10–12 minutes or until fish flakes.
