INGREDIENTS

For the Balsamic Chili Fig Drizzle

2 tbsp Divina Chili Fig Spread
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar

For the Chili Fig Salmon

16 oz salmon filet
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp Divina Chili Fig Spread
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

For Serving (Optional)

Cooked rice

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare the Balsamic Chili Fig Drizzle

1. In a small bowl, stir together the balsamic vinegar and Chili Fig Spread. Set aside.

Prepare the Chili Fig Salmon

1. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat.
2. Sprinkle the flesh side of the salmon with the salt and black pepper.
3. Once the oil is hot, place the salmon in the pan skin side up. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until browned.
4. Carefully flip the salmon and continue cooking until the skin is crisp and the salmon is cooked through.
5. If the salmon begins to brown too quickly, reduce the heat to medium.
6. Remove the pan from the heat and spoon the Chili Fig Spread over the salmon. The warmth of the fish will help it spread evenly.
7. Top with the chopped parsley and serve with the balsamic chili fig drizzle.
