How to Make Maple Balsamic Glazed Salmon

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 finely minced shallot, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Bring the maple syrup mixture to a boil over medium heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened to a syrupy consistency.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped.
  5. Preheat your broiler to high.
  6. Place salmon fillets on a greased broiler pan rack. (Ensure the rack is unheated.)
  7. Brush half of the glaze evenly over the top of the salmon.
  8. Broil for 5-7 minutes, 6-7 inches from the heat source.
  9. Flip the salmon fillets.
  10. Brush the other half of the glaze over the other side of the salmon.
  11. Broil for another 3-5 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy!
