I found this recipe in a collection of recipes from my grandmother. I thought it sounded a bit weird, but went ahead and tried it. Anyway, it turned out to be a HUGE hit with my kids and hubby. EVERYONE wanted more!
Ingredients:
6 (4 -6 ounce) salmon fillets, thawed if necessary
1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
1/2 cup cranberry juice cocktail
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup white wine
1 tablespoon minced garlic clove
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, as needed
Directions:
1. Place salmon in a large, non-reactive pan or dish.
2. Combine remaining ingredients, except vegetable oil.
3. Pour marinade over salmon, turning to coat both sides.
4. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator, 1 hour.
5. To cook, remove salmon from marinade, reserving marinade.
6. Heat a small amount of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
7. Cook salmon, working in batches if necessary, for 10 minutes per inch of thickness, measured at thickest part, or until salmon flakes when tested with a fork. (you could cook the salmon on a George Foreman type grill, instead).
8. Remove salmon from pan and keep warm.
9. Discard oil from pan.
10. Add reserved marinade.
11. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened, 8-10 minutes.
12. Serve salmon fillets with approximately 1/4 cup of sauce per serving.
