Salmon with Spiced Apricot Glaze and Roasted Brussel Sprouts

A simple yet elegant dish featuring pan-seared salmon glazed with a sweet and spicy apricot sauce, served alongside roasted Brussel sprouts for a satisfying meal.

Ingredients:

  • 4 salmon filets (6 oz each)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup chopped dried apricots
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 pound Brussel sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small saucepan, combine apricots, orange juice, soy sauce, honey, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 10 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened slightly.
  3. While the glaze is simmering, toss Brussel sprouts with melted butter, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
  4. Season salmon filets with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  5. Brush the cooked salmon with apricot glaze. Serve immediately alongside roasted Brussel sprouts.
