Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup cranberry juice concentrate
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp cherry preserves
4 salmon fillets, approximately 6 oz each
1 tsp salt-free citrus herb seasoning (recommended: spice islands)
orange slices
toasted slivered almonds, for garnish
2 cups low-sodium chicken stock (recommended : swansons)
2 cups instant rice (recommended : uncle ben's)
1 pinch salt

Broil for 6 minutes. Spoon glaze over each fillet, top each with an orange slice and broil for another 2 minutes.
Serve glazed salmon fillets hot garnished with almonds.
For the rice:
In a medium saucepan, heat chicken stock over medium-high heat to a simmer. Add, rice, salt, pepper and saffron.
Bring to a boil. Stir in cherries. Cover and turn heat to low. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until liquid is absorbed.
Fluff with fork to distribute saffron and cherries. Serve hot.
