Chestnut Crusted Salmon With Roasted Apple Jam Recipes

APPLE GLAZED BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Rinse fish, pat dry and place in a deep glass baking dish coated in cooking spray. Season fish with kosher sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine apple jelly, vinegar, horseradish, apple juice and chives. Mix well, however there may be lumps and it will be a little milky. This is normal.
• Baste over salmon filet, reserving anything leftover, you'll baste it again.
• Bake uncovered, for 10 minutes. Remove, baste again and turn oven to high broil. Broil for 1-2 minutes until edges brown slightly.
• Remove and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional chives and/or chopped parsley.

PEPPERONI JAM

Steps:

• Place the pepperoni in a medium heavy-bottomed skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat begins to render and the pepperoni begins to crisp, about 5 minutes. Strain the pepperoni and reserve 2 tablespoons of the rendered fat in the skillet.
• Add the onions to the skillet and sauté, stirring often, over high heat until translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cherry peppers, roasted red peppers and pepperoni and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes until everything is incorporated.
• Stir in the vinegar, brown sugar and oregano and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the mixture is dark, caramelized and syrupy, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 weeks. Use as a topping on your favorite grilled cheese or pizza. It's also great on hot dogs and cheese plates.
