How to Make One Pan Balsamic Salmon
- In a large oven-safe skillet (12 inches or larger), heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped red onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 minute, allowing the sauce to slightly reduce.
- Place 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin-side down, in the skillet.
- Spoon the balsamic mixture evenly over the salmon fillets.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the salmon fillets.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork and the topping is golden brown.
