Who would’ve thought salmon and honey with fresh orange could go together so incredibly well?

Prep Time10 minsCook Time10 minsTotal Time20 mins

INGREDIENTS

 1 tbsp Olive Oil
 2 tsp Butter
 2 Salmon fillets, cut in half to make 4 pieces
 ¼ cup Fresh Orange Juice (about 1/2 to 1 orange)
 3 tbsp Honey
 2 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
 4 Garlic cloves, crushed
 Salt and Pepper to serve
 Orange slices (from the leftover half) to garnish

DIRECTIONS

1

Heat butter (or oil) in a pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Sear salmon skin-side up for 3-4 minutes. Flip and sear for 2 minutes.

2

Pour in the orange juice and allow to reduce to half the quantity (it takes about 1 minute to reduce down if your pan is hot enough). Add the garlic and cook until fragrant (30 seconds).

3

Move the salmon to the sides of the pan and add in the honey and soy sauce, stirring well to combine all of the flavors together.

4

Bring to a simmer until reduced to a nice syrup (this takes about another 30 seconds to 1 minute), and move the salmon around in the sauce to evenly coat. Remove from heat once the salmon is cooked to your liking.

5

Season with salt and pepper to your tastes. Drizzle with the sauce to serve.

6

Best served over rice, noodles, steamed vegetables or with a salad.

OPTIONAL
7

To get those charred and crispy edges, broil (or grill) salmon in the last 2 minutes of cooking if you're using an oven-safe pan or skillet. Be sure to preheat your broiler while the salmon is cooking on the stove.
