This sweet, astringent red-grapefruit relish gets a bit of heat from red-pepper flakes. A perfect foil for salmon, it also works with chicken or pork.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 Ruby Red grapefruits
3 to 4 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 skinless salmon fillets, (about 6 ounces each)

Steps:

  • Remove a thin slice from the top and bottom of 2 grapefruits, and discard. Set one of the flat sides on the work surface. From top to bottom, following the curve of the fruit, cut away peel and white pith. Holding fruit over bowl, cut along both sides of each segment (close to the membrane) to release. Reserve segments. Squeeze juice from membrane into a measuring cup. Juice the third grapefruit to total 1 1/2 cups juice.
  • In a medium non-aluminum saucepan, combine juice, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil and cook unti syrupy, about 15 minutes (you should have about 1/4 cup). Remove half of the glaze to bowl and let cool to room temperature.
  • Add 1 cup of grapefruit segments to the pot (reserve remainder for serving); bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until segments have broken down and sauce has thickened, about 12 minutes (you should have about 1/4 cup of relish).
  • Heat broiler with the rack set 4 inches from the top. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place salmon fillets on prepared sheet and season with salt and pepper. Brush salmon with reserved glaze and broil, rotating once during cooking, until opaque throughout, 6 to 7 minutes. Serve salmon with relish and reserved grapefruit segments.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to simpler salmon recipes in the future.

I'm allergic to grapefruit, so I used orange relish instead. It was still delicious!

I had some trouble finding grapefruit relish at the store, so I made my own using the recipe included in the blog post. It turned out great!

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I'm not a big fan of spicy food. If you like spicy food, then you'll probably love this recipe.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now, and it always turns out perfectly. It's a great weeknight meal because it's quick and easy to make, but it's also fancy enough for a special occasion.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The sweetness of the glaze, the tartness of the grapefruit, and the spiciness of the relish all work together perfectly.

The glaze on the salmon was perfectly caramelized and added a beautiful color to the dish. I served this with roasted vegetables and a side of rice, and it was a hit with my family.

I'm not usually a fan of grapefruit, but this relish was surprisingly delicious. It had just the right amount of sweetness and heat, and it really brought out the flavor of the salmon.

This glazed salmon with spicy grapefruit relish was an absolute delight! The salmon was cooked to perfection, flaky and moist, while the relish added a tangy and slightly spicy kick that perfectly complemented the fish.
