This easy salmon recipe is made with a quick berry sauce that's full of sweet flavor. It's an impressive dish to serve for company or weekend guests that requires just a few minutes of prep.
If doubling this recipe (it only makes 2 servings) use a medium-sized saucepan for the sauce so there is more surface area for the reduction. To prevent scorching, brush salmon with syrup just a minute or two before removing it from the broiler.
