Photo: Pan Seared Salmon with Citrus Vinegar Glaze and Green Beans Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 (6 ounce) portions salmon fillets
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing fish
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons orange juice, a splash
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- Orange slices or lemon rind
Directions
Preheat a cast iron pan or heavy bottomed skillet over medium high heat. Brush the salmon fillets with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Cook salmon until just cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side.
While salmon cooks, bring wine, vinegar, citrus juices and brown sugar to a boil over high heat. Reduce glaze 3 or 4 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper.
In a second skillet, bring 1/2-inch water to a boil with green beans and pieces of orange and/or lemon rind. Cover the green beans and cook 3 or 4 minutes. Drain the beans and toss with a drizzle of oil (optional) and season with salt and pepper.
Drizzle glaze over salmon fillets and serve with citrus green beans.

Tasted a little too sweet and the sauce did not thicken as expected.

Very delicious , I made this meal as a surprise for my wife and daughter, since my son has a fish allergy we have steered away from fish, but now that he is out of town at college we are rediscovering fish. Very easy to make and prep was simple. No wonder since it is from Rachell Ray....... I kept the wine absent from my recipe, only because I didn't have any at home, it was still perfect......

This is a delicious dish. I also had difficulty with thickening the glaze, and I did add cornstarch as was suggested in an earlier review. I will practice this part. I let it boil/rapid simmer for 10 minutes; however, I was still not satisfied with the consistency. The salmon was great! I really enjoyed the char-broiled or charcoal grilled flavor that pan searing gave the fish. The sauce tasted great with the fish. I plated mine on a bed of lettuce, dressed with the sauce, and crumbled gorgonzola cheese. I also was able to prepare this dish while two screaming three-year-olds played at my feet.
