Grilled Salmon with Balsamic Wilted Spinach

Recipes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1/4 cup sesame oil

  • 1/4 cup red wine

  • 1 teaspoon chopped garlic

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 1 tablespoon water

  • 1 (6-ounce) salmon fillet

  • Olive Oil

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 4 ounces fresh spinach, stemmed

  • 4 slices red onion

  • 2 slices red tomato

  • 1 green onion, cut lengthwise to halves

Directions

  1. Bring the vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, wine, and garlic to a boil in a saucepan, stirring occasionally.

  2. Mix the cornstarch and water in a bowl until blended; gradually add to the vinegar mixture, stirring constantly. Cook until thickened. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.

  3. Coat the fillet with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the fillet on a gas grill until medium-well or to the desired degree of doneness. Toss the spinach with just enough of the warm balsamic dressing in a bowl to coat, mound in the center of a serving plate. Arrange the fillet over the spinach and top with the red onion slices, tomato slices and green onion.

  4. Spoon the shrimp mixture onto a serving plate and sprinkle the cabbage, carrots, almonds, and herbs.
