Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

two 1-2 lb wild salmon fillets
12 oz. juice-sweetened Apricot jam with whole fruit pieces
4 tbsp fresh red miso
1 tbsp soy sauce
6 cloves garlic
1 tbsp fresh ginger
olive oil
aluminum foil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Mix the apricot jam, miso, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger to form a paste. Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil, and place a second sheet of foil loosely on top of the first. spread a small amount of olive oil, and two or three tablespoons of the apricot mixture onto the second sheet of foil. Place the salmon skin side down on top. Take approx. half of the apricot mixture and spread on top of the fillet, wrapping the fillet in foil when done. Repeat with the second fillet, and remainder of the apricot mixture. Make sure you have a layer of foil on your cookie sheet as well as around your salmon, as it is likely that the mixture will leak. Bake until done, about 20-25 min for a fillet of average thickness. Serve with curried rice as whole fillets, or divide and garnish with a slice of orange and some thai basil. The liquid that remains in the foil can be spooned on the fillets as a gravy.
