Another salmon recipe with a nice sweet glaze to liven up the mild taste of the fish. (edited May 2007 to reflect comments on cooking time - was originally 4 to 6 min per half inch) Ingredients:
2 lbs salmon fillets, skin removed |
3/4 cup orange marmalade |
2 green onions, sliced (1/4 cup) |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 teaspoons dry white wine |
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated |
1 teaspoon dijon-style mustard |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1/8 teaspoon five-spice powder |
3 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degree F. 2. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. 3. Measure the thickest portion of the fillet. 4. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Place in a shallow baking pan; set aside. 5. In a small bowl stir together marmalade, green onions, garlic, wine, ginger, mustard, cayenne pepper, and five-spice powder. Spoon mixture over salmon. 6. Bake, uncovered, for 6 to 12 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness or until salmon flakes easily when tested with a fork. (have gotten varied responses on how long this takes, so definitely test it!) 7. Transfer fish and glaze to a serving dish with a lip. 8. Sprinkle with almonds. 9. Serve with steamed asparagus, if desired. |
