How to Make Balsamic Maple Glaze Salmon

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup grapefruit juice, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and 1 clove minced garlic. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5-6 minutes, or until the glaze slightly thickens.
  3. Stir in 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  4. Season two 6-ounce salmon fillets generously with salt and pepper.
  5. Place salmon fillets on a grill pan or baking sheet. Brush generously with the balsamic maple glaze.
  6. Grill or broil for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through and brushing with additional glaze, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  7. While the salmon cooks, stir-fry a handful of spinach with a touch of olive oil and salt until wilted.
  8. Toss cooked noodles with the remaining glaze.
  9. Serve the glazed salmon over the noodles and alongside the spinach. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
