Crazy easy right?

NOW the part that really gives the recipe deliciousness is that while you cook your salmon in the oven- brown a tablespoon per serving of butter in a small skillet. 

Make sure to brown the butter, and NOT burn it! So just be sure you pull the skillet off the heat when the butter has all just turned brown.

When the Salmon is done cooking, lay it out on your serving plate and drizzle the browned butter over the top, followed up with balsamic vinegar sprinkled on the fish. Now I know this may sound a bit odd, but trust me this recipe is rich, flavorful and, simple.
