Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine peach preserves, fruit juice, olive oil, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to create the marinade. Set aside half for later.
Place salmon fillets in a resealable bag and pour in the remaining marinade. Seal tightly and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Heat oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the salmon fillets skin-side up for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Flip the salmon to skin-side down and add sliced peaches to the skillet; cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Pour reserved marinade over both salmon and peaches.
Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
Serve immediately.
