Ingredients

4 (4 ounces each) salmon fillets (See Note 1)
2 tablespoons honey
1 shallot minced
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary (See Note 2)
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper (See Note 3)

Instructions

Preheat the broiler and place the upper rack about 6 inches from the top element. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Pat dry the salmon fillets and arrange on the baking sheet. If using fillets with skin, place them on the tray skin side down.
In a small bowl, stir together the honey, shallot, rosemary, white wine vinegar, salt and cayenne pepper.
Brush the honey mixture over the salmon fillets.
Broil until the salmon is just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes (more time if thicker fillets). Take care not to overcook so that the fish is not dry. Serve.

Notes

Note 1: Use salmon fillets with or without skin. The salmon will easily separate from the skin once cooked. The nutritional information was calculated for skinless filets.

Note 2: Fresh rosemary is preferred, but dry crushed rosemary can be used in its place. Use 1 teaspoon dried.

Note 3: The cayenne pepper adds some subtle heat. If you are sensitive to heat, feel free to omit the cayenne or replace it with ground black pepper.
