Salmon with Balsamic Reduction Sauce & Fresh Tomato Salsa

I made this tasty rascal tonight, thought you may enjoy the recipe as well. Try a little more salt or garlic in the reduction, something else was needed. maybe a bit more mustard.

Balsamic Reduction Sauce

1/2 c. good balsamic vinegar
1/2 c red wine vinegar
1 tsp. chile powder
1 T honey
1 tsp. grainy Dijon mustard

Tomato Salsa

2 c tomatoes, finely chopped
1/2 c red onion, finely chopped
1 tsp. red chili flakes
1/4 red wine vinegar
2 T extra virgin olive oil


Directions:

Prepare reduction Sauce. Reduce vinegars by simmering to 1/4 cup. Add chili powder, honey and mustard. Mix well. Use this to glaze your salmon just before done. Set aside half of your sauce to serve with salmon.

Brush salmon with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Sear salmon in non-stick pan or on grill approximately 6 minutes per side depending on thickness. Just before done glaze with balsamic reduction sauce.

While salmon is cooking, toss all salsa ingredients together. Serve along side or on top of your salmon and with some basmati rice.
