How to Make Thanksgiving Salmon
- Preheat your broiler to high.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought, flavored or plain), 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 2 finely chopped shallots.
- Stir until thoroughly combined and set aside.
- Lightly grease a baking sheet or broiling pan.
- Arrange salmon fillets (about 4, 6-ounce fillets) in a single layer on the prepared pan.
- Drizzle salmon fillets with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Season generously with lemon juice (about 1 tablespoon), 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Broil salmon for 7 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven. Evenly spread the cranberry-dijon mixture over each salmon fillet.
- Return the pan to the broiler and cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the glaze is bubbly and slightly caramelized.
- Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
