Balsamic Garlic Glazed Salmon
When I was younger my Mother served us several times a month, it was breaded cod. It was honestly the worst dinner night of the week. When we got old enough we all hoped to be busy on cod night. Because of this I’ve always assumed that I absolutely hated fish.I decided to try making fish for dinner a couple weeks ago since it is so good for you. I was very wary of actually doing it so I kept putting off this dinner. When I finally did get up the courage to make it I was actually quite surprised. This dish wasn’t as terrible as I remembered fish being (a high compliment from me). Alex really loved the salmon, he said it was a great combination of sweet and savory.

Preheat the oven to 400. Line a baking sheet with tin foil and spray with cooking spray.
In a small saucepan cook the olive oil and garlic until tender.
Add the honey, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper. Cook until slightly thickened.
Place the salmon on the baking sheet and brush with the sauce. Reserve half of the sauce to spread on the salmon after cooking.
