Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven:
Begin by preheating your oven to a temperature of 350°F (175°C), ensuring it reaches the right heat to create a beautifully baked salmon. -
Prepare the Glaze:
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of apple jelly, 1/3 cup of finely chopped chives, 2 tablespoons of prepared horseradish, and 1 tablespoon of vinegar. Whisk these ingredients together until well blended, creating a sweet and tangy glaze that will complement the salmon. -
Season the Salmon:
Take your salmon fillets and season them generously on both sides with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. This will enhance the flavor of the fish as it cooks. -
Heat the Oil:
In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers, indicating that it’s hot enough for cooking. -
Cook the Salmon:
Once the oil is ready, carefully place the seasoned salmon fillets in the skillet. Cook for approximately 3 minutes on one side, allowing a lovely golden crust to form. After 3 minutes, gently flip the salmon fillets over, and brush the top with half of the apple glaze mixture you prepared earlier. -
Bake the Salmon:
Transfer the salmon along with any juices from the skillet into a baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 7 minutes. After the first baking period, carefully turn the salmon fillets over and brush them again with the remaining apple glaze mixture. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 7 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. -
Serve:
Once fully cooked, remove the salmon from the oven and allow it to rest for a couple of minutes. Serve warm, garnished with additional chives if desired, alongside your favorite side dishes to complete this delightful meal.
