Pomegranate-Glazed Salmon

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 
2. Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin side down. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together pomegranate juice, honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, and ground ginger.
4. Using a brush or spoon, coat the glaze generously on top of the salmon fillets.
5. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through the flakes easily with a fork.
6. While the salmon is cooking, heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add any remaining glaze and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until it thickens and becomes syrupy.
7. Once the fillets are done, brush the thickened glaze on top of them. Garnish with pomegranate arils and freshly chopped parsley or cilantro.
