Taking "Ten Amazing Foods" one step further!!

I'm on a bit of a recipe kick right now, and the last 9 Wednesdays I gave you a healthy recipe, one for each of the "10 Amazing Foods" from the March 30th post -



The tenth and final on my list of amazing foods is citrus fruits and the recipe to go with it is actually combining two of the amazing foods from my list -

Grilled Balsamic and Grapefruit Glazed Salmon
1 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
2 tablespoons good quality balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
4 salmon fillets, 6 oz. each
Salt
Pepper
8 grapefruit slices, ½ " thick (peel grapefruit prior to slicing)

Combine grapefruit juice, balsamic vinegar and brown sugar in medium saucepan. Boil until reduced by half, approximately 15 minutes. Keep warm.
Season each side of the salmon with salt and pepper. Grill salmon until just done in center, about 5 minutes per side, depending on thickness of fillet.  Brush salmon with 1 tablespoon grapefruit glaze during grilling and just before removing from grill.  Place 2 grapefruit slices on serving plate and top with cooked salmon fillet. Drizzle 1 tablespoon glaze on top of salmon.
