Salmão fácil com damasco assado e glaceado

Ingredientes

• 800 g (1.7lbs) salmon ((trimmed into 4 skin-on fillets) )
• 3/4 cup (180ml) apricot jam/preserves
• 1-2 tbsp (15-30ml) soy sauce
• 2 tbsp (30ml) lemon juice
• pinch of chilli flakes/red pepper flakes ((optional) )
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tbsp (30ml) water
• salt and pepper (to taste )

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Pre-heat the oven to 220ºC/430ºF.

2. 2

   Combine all the glaze ingredients and bring to a simmer in a small saucepan. Allow to cook for a few minutes until the glaze has thickened and coats the back of a spoon easily. Adjust seasoning (add more soy or lemon juice if necessary) and allow to cool slightly.

3. 3

   Line a baking tray with foil and grease with a little oil/cooking spray. Place the salmon fillets on the tray, skin-side down. Pour over the glaze and place in the oven.

4. 4

   Allow to bake for 7-10 minutes, spooning the glaze over the salmon every 2-3 minutes, until the salmon is cooked to your preference, and is glossy and sticky.

5. 5

   Remove from the oven and allow to rest for a few minutes before serving with sides of your choice.
