Salmon pomegranate sauce showcases sweet-and-sour flavors beautifully.

They are a favorite Sephardi combination. The onions caramelize naturally during the cooking process, and contribute a sweet counterpoint to the vinegar.

Salmon Pomegranate Sauce is a quick and delicious dish, just the way I like it—one pan, one step.

I hope you think of pomegranate juice more often when you cook, not just this salmon in pomegranate sauce. Of course I mean pure pomegranate juice: Unsweetened, undiluted. I love the sweet-tart contrast in the flavors, and the naturally syrupy texture that forms a natural sauce at the end of cooking.

Ingredients

  • 4 6-ounce slices boneless skinless salmon or other thick-flesh fish, such as bass or scrod
  • 1 large red onion, sliced very thin (use the food processor)
  • 1 pouch Levana Nourishments Garden Vegetable
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened pomegranate juice
  • 2 tablespoons unfiltered apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the salmon in a pan just large enough to accommodate the fish in one layer. Scatter the onions on top and on the sides of the fish. Mix all remaining ingredients in a bowl, and pour evenly over the fish. Cook about 15 minutes, or a tiny bit more until the fish flakes easily and the liquids thicken. Serve hot or at room temperature. Makes 4 servings
