Pan-Roasted Salmon with Cherry Tomatoes
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
SALMON: - 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°. Place the tomatoes in a foil-lined baking pan, and drizzle it with oil. Sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Toss them to coat. Roast until the tomatoes are softened, 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, sprinkle your fillets with salt and pepper, and in a large cast-iron skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add your fillets, and then cook for 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan.
- Add in your garlic to the pan and cook for about a minute while stirring. Add the broth, constantly stirring to loosen the browned bits from the pan. Keep cooking until the liquid has decreased by half, 1-2 minutes. Stir in the roasted tomatoes and return the salmon to the pan. Bake until your fish begins to flake easily with a fork, 5-7 minutes.
