This recipe is easy to prepare and perfect for a special dinner or a quick weekday meal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a mouthwatering dish that is sure to impress.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp olive oil
14g
12 oz salmon
340g
1 tbsp salt
6g
1/2 tbsp black pepper
1g
1 cup raspberries
120g
1/2 tbsp brown sugar
1g

Instructions:

1. Preparation and Preheat:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
2. Raspberry Glaze:
- In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and brown sugar.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down into a sauce-like consistency (about 5-7 minutes).
- Optionally, you can strain the mixture to remove the seeds for a smoother glaze. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. Season the Salmon:
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking tray.
- Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the salmon.
- Sprinkle the salt and black pepper evenly over the fillets, ensuring they are well-seasoned.
4. Glaze the Salmon:
- Using a spoon or a brush, generously coat the salmon fillets with the raspberry glaze. Reserve a small amount of glaze for final basting.
5. Bake the Salmon:
- Place the baking tray in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
6. Final Touch:
- Remove the salmon from the oven and give it a final basting with the reserved raspberry glaze for extra flavor and shine.
7. Serve:
- Serve the raspberry-glazed salmon hot, alongside your favorite side dishes such as steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad.

Tips:

- For an even richer flavor, marinate the salmon in olive oil, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes before cooking.

- Make sure to heat the olive oil in the pan until it is hot before adding the salmon to achieve a nice, crispy sear.

- Gently crush the raspberries to release their juices while still keeping some whole for texture in the glaze.

- Cook the salmon skin-side down first to ensure the skin becomes crispy and easy to peel off if desired.

- Serve the salmon with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad to complete the meal.

- For an extra touch of flavor, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon just before serving.

Raspberry-glazed salmon is a versatile and delicious dish that combines the richness of salmon with the unique sweetness of raspberries.
