  Salad or cooking

  3 tbsp or 41g

• Atlantic salmon

  Fish, farmed, raw

  20 oz or 567g

• Salt

  Table

  1 ½ tsp or 9g

• Pepper

  Spices, black

  ½ tsp or 1g

• Balsamic vinegar

  ⅔ cup or 170g

• Onions

  Raw

  2 medium or 220g

• Butter

  Unsalted

  1 tbsp or 14g

• Sugar

  White, granulated sugar

  1 tsp or 4g

Directions

1. Heat one-third of the olive oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot.
2. Pat the salmon fillets dry, sprinkle with two-thirds of the salt and pepper, then cook skin side up until the undersides form a golden crust, about 12 to 15 minutes. Turn the fish over and cook until just cooked through, about 3 minutes more.
3. Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Cut the onions into small wedges, then sauté until golden brown and crisp-tender, about 6 to 8 minutes.
4. Stir in the balsamic vinegar, sugar, and remaining salt, and cook until the sauce is syrupy, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the butter.
5. Spoon the onions with sauce onto plates and top with the salmon, skin side down.
