Apricot-Chile Glazed Salmon Recipe
Apricot-Chile Glazed Salmon
2 Tbsp. New Mexico red chili powder
½ tsp. salt
1 ¼ – 1 ½ lbs. center-cut wild salmon, skinned
3 Tbsp. apricot jam
Preheat grill to medium-high. (No grill? See oven variation, below.)
Combine chili powder and salt in a small bowl. Rub onto both sides of salmon.
Place jam in a small saucepan; heat over medium heat, stirring, until melted.
Oil the grill rack. Grill the salmon 4 minutes, and then turn it over. Using a pastry brush, coat the top of salmon with the jam. Close the grill; cook until the salmon easily flakes with a fork, 3 to 5 minutes more. To serve, cut into 4 portions.
Oven Variation: Prepare through Step 3. Bake in a shallow baking pan at 350 F., about 15 minutes.
