Orange Salmon

Our favorite way to eat Salmon.

Ingredients:

• 4 salmon fillets
• 2 tbsp of Hoisin Sauce
• 1 tbsp orange juice
• 1 tbsp of honey
• Salt and Pepper (to taste)
• Optional: Garnish with green onions, orange peel, or thinly sliced oranges

Directions

1. Turn broiler to high
2. Rinse salmon and pat dry on paper towel
3. Lay the salmon on a lined baking sheet (skin side down)
4. Season fish with salt and pepper
5. In a bowl, mix the first 3 ingredients (to taste if necessary)
6. Coat fish with sauce
7. Broil fish until slightly burnt or color turns amber (approx 5-8 mins)

We usually bake the salmon in parchment paper instead.  Heat the oven to 350.  Place the salmon in the parchment paper so that you can fold it up in to it.  Place the sauce on top of the salmon and then fold it up in the paper.  Cook in the oven for 20-25 minutes.  The parchment paper makes for easy clean up too!!

Tip:  I froze 1 tbsp portions of orange juice in ice cube trays so that I could have it on hand without making a whole pitcher of juice each time.
