Ina's Melted Cherry Tomatoes over Salmon- Divine

Ina- you have  done it again.  I made your Melted Cherry Tomatoes over Salmon last night for dinner and I must say- it was divine. It is definitely  a new "go-to" recipe for my family. Your tips in the recipe really made this dish easy and very  successful!  I have never cooked my salmon so well.

 

 

First I sliced little "cherub" tomatoes in half. they are  truly the only tomato besides the Campari-on the vine tomatoes- to really taste like a tomato this time of the year in Chicago.

 

 

 

 

In general , you saute in olive oil  with onions until melted.

 

Throw in fresh basil.

 

Finish with balsamic vinegar and plate.

 

 

Sear salmon - skin side up- for 4 minutes- without touching- in an iron skillet.

This was an invaluable tip!

 

Flip with a fish spatula and voila- beautiful seared salmon.

 

 

 

Plate with the Melted Cherry Tomatoes.

We served with basmati rice. It was deelish!

 

Thanks Ina! You are my favorite and you have done it again!

Fresh and very healthy for the new year. 

This recipe is in her new book  "Foolproof".

Get this recipe and try it! We loved the tomatoes so much, that we made it again the next night and served it with  beef filets. Again, it was a hit!  This is a versatile  tomato sauce- perfect for many applications.
