A unique twist on classic salmon with a sweet and tangy jelly glaze. Perfect for a special dinner.

Main Dish

Steps

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the jelly, soy sauce, and minced garlic.
Place the salmon on a baking sheet lined with foil.
Spread the jelly mixture over the salmon.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the salmon is cooked through.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Tips for Jelly Glazed Salmon

The glaze should look glossy and lightly tacky when done; dark, bitter patches can mean the jelly sugars are scorching.
A thinner fillet will finish sooner than a thick center-cut piece, so check early for opaque flesh that separates into flakes.
Use a rimmed baking sheet so any sticky glaze that runs off the foil stays contained.

Drink pairing

A dry Riesling
Its bright acidity complements the sweet-tangy jelly glaze while working well with salmon.

0% option: Sparkling water with a squeeze of lemon.

Storage

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in a covered container and use within 3–4 days. Reheat until steaming hot; the glaze may become darker and stickier.
