Description

A quick and easy recipe featuring salmon marinated in a tangy orange sauce made from fresh orange juice, honey, and soy sauce.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb salmon (skin on)
  • 1 orange (zest and juice from this orange)
  • 1 additional orange (juice only)
  • 3 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp honey


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, folding up the edges to keep the sauce contained.
  2. Combine the juice from two oranges, zest from one orange, soy sauce, and honey in a bowl. Whisk everything well until combined.
  3. Pour a few spoonfuls of sauce onto the prepared baking pan. Place the salmon skin side up and pour the remaining sauce over the top.
  4. Bake for about 7 minutes and carefully flip the salmon skin-side down. Spoon some sauce over the top of the salmon.
  5. Continue baking for an additional 18-20 minutes, or until the salmon is done.

Notes

Serve over rice or quinoa for a nutritious meal. Adjust honey based on sweetness preference. Fresh ingredients make the biggest difference in flavor.
