Serve this delicious mouthwatering salmon with brown rice or rice pilaf an a green vegetable such as broccoli or spinach for a nutritionally balanced and delicious meal. Salmon, which is known for being high in heart healthy omega 3 fatty acids, is also extremely high in B vitamins, especially B12 which maintains a healthy nervous system as well as helps form red blood cells.
Did you know: High quality balsamic vinegar is aged for years in wooden barrels, and can be quite expensive. To get the most flavor out of an inexpensive balsamic vinegar, put it in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer down to about half, or until it becomes a thick syrupy liquid. The flavor becomes concentrated and much more flavorful. You can use this anywhere you would use balsamic vinegar.

Heat a large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add butter or oil and swirl until hot and coats the pan. Season both sides of salmon filets with salt and cracked black pepper. Add salmon filets to the skillet and cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden brown. If you try to lift up your fish and it sticks, continue cooking until it lifts up effortlessly.
Meanwhile, in small bowl, whisk together the honey and the balsamic vinegar until thoroughly combined. Add the vinegar mixture to the skillet with your fish and continue to cook until fish is fork tender and the liquid reduces and thickens, maybe 2 more minutes. For a thicker, more flavorful sauce, continue simmering for 3 to 5 more minutes until desired consistency, but take your fish out of the pan to avoid overcooking while doing so. Let the salmon filets rest for 5 minutes as they continue cooking even after removing from pan. Serve immediately.
