Pan Seared Salmon with Blueberry Sauce

To start, let me apologize for the image quality. You see, I was in such a foodie mode, thinking only of eating this delicious crispy on the outside flaky and tender on the inside salmon that i forgot to bring my camera to this feast-ival. With that being said,  This is a perfect dinner to make for all occasions. It is so simple, quick and it always turns out looking faaaaaabulous.





Ingredients: 
Serves 2

2 medium salmon fillets (Wild caught preferred)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp minced shallots
1/2 cup blueberries
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 fresh sprigs of dill to garnish 
   salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

1. In medium pan add 1 tbsp olive oil
2. Lightly rub salmon fillets with sea salt on top sides of flesh.
3. Place fillets in pan on high heat. 3-4 minutes on eat side, or until it flakes easily.
4. While salmon is cooking,  place small pot on medium heat with one tbsp olive oil and add shallots.
5. Once translucent, add balsamic vinegar  and blueberries.
6. Coat and mix until blueberries dissolve in a sauce. Add water and lower heat.
7. Once salmon is done, place on plate and drizzle the blueberry sauce generously.
8. Gently lay the fresh sprig of dill on top and enjoy!
