Instructions:

For the salmon:

  • Add salmon filets to a shallow dish. In a small mixing bowl combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pour over the salmon, cover, and let marinade for 30 minutes.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat in a large sauté pan, add in marinated salmon filets, sear 4-5 minutes per side. Fish will release from pan when ready to flip. Salmon should temp at 125-130 degrees F when done. If the filets are thick, finish cooking in the oven.
