Directions
- Make the salsa: Marinate the onion, red wine vinegar, red wine, and sugar for about an hour. Drain liquid from the onions. Combine onions with the remaining ingredients and chill.
- Make the glaze: Combine all the glaze ingredients and bring to a slow simmer for ten min.
- Divide the salsa among 4 dinner plates. Brush the spicy glaze on the skin side of the salmon fillets, turn over and put a very heavy coating on top. Set aside.
- Heat a heavy-bottomed saute/fry pan over medium heat. Add in sufficient of the vegetable oil to film the bottom of the saute/fry pan. Place the salmon fillets in the pan topside down and cook till the fish is glazed and mahogany brown. Flip and cook on the skin side for 3 to 6 min till the fillets are medium-rare. Remove from heat and place on top of salsa. Sprinkle with a little coarse grnd pepper.
