When you come to The Leaf you know every single recipe we dish out is diet-approved, delicious and easy to whip up, and our Blueberry Glazed Salmon is no exception.
But if you do find yourself dining out and coming face to face with delicious seafood options, have no fear! As long as you learn how to order at a seafood restaurant, you can order a delicious and nutritious meal with confidence. And you’re in luck: we have dining out guides for all your favorite restaurants from Mexican restaurants and Chinese restaurants, all the way to vegetarian and Thai restaurants.
Now back to this delicious Blueberry Glazed Salmon! You’ll line a baking sheet with foil and spray it with a nonstick spray of your choosing. Place the salmon on the baking sheet and season it with black pepper. Next, grab a small saucepan and turn the stove up to medium-high heat. Toss in the blueberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, rosemary and lemon juice until the blueberries release their juices. Pour half the mixture on the salmon and save the rest for later. Once the salmon is fully cooked, you’ll pour the remaining the mixture on the salmon.
In just 20 minutes, you’ll have a restaurant-quality meal at a fraction of the price—and a fraction of the calories!
