Instructions
Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and give it a quick spray with cooking oil to keep things from sticking. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the onions, vinegar, and brown sugar. Let it cook, stirring now and then, until the mixture starts to caramelize and turn golden—this usually takes about 15 minutes. While that’s happening, melt some butter with minced garlic in a small pan over medium heat. Place your salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet and brush them generously with the garlic butter. Then spoon the caramelized onion mixture evenly over the salmon. Pop the tray in the oven and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when you test it with a fork. Keep an eye on it, as thicker fillets might need a bit more time.
