[WeAreStardust] Recipes - Seared Salmon With Orange Glaze & Oven-Poached Salmon Fillets

Seared Salmon With Orange Glaze Description Not an ounce of flavor escapes this dish! The salmon is seared, trapping its rich flavor, briefly baked, and then drizzled with a thick, lightly fragranced orange ginger glaze-a balanced companion for a fish as flavorful as salmon. Salmon provides ample amounts of pro-tein, B vitamins, vitamin A, and omega-3 oils. Ingredients Six 6-ounce salmon fillets1 tablespoon sesame oil3 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce1/4 cup white wine1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice1 teaspoon orange zest 3 tablespoons sherry 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger 2 slices orange Instructions Preheat oven to 400�F.

Sear the fish fillets in the sesame oil in a large, very hot skillet for 1 minute on each side. You should hear the fish sizzle. Remove fillets from the heat and transfer them to a glass baking dish or baking pan.

Drizzle the soy sauce and the wine over them and bake them for 10 minutes. Remove them from the oven.

Meanwhile, heat the orange juice, zest, sherry, and ginger, together in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced by half. Add the orange slices, and stir once or twice, until the sauce becomes thick.

Remove from heat, drizzle the sauce over the fish, and serve.

Tips From Rosie's Kitchen:Searing meat or fish is a way to lock in the juices by exposing it to very high temperature. The correct way to sear is in a hot skillet or on a grill, for a very short amount of time, then slowly finish cooking in the oven. Be careful not to get the skillet too hot too fast or the oil will burn. If you want to serve this dish for lunch, serve half of a fillet with a side of salad. Ono or opah works beautifully with this recipe as an alternative to salmon. Serves 6

Baking salmon fillets, covered, with a little wine and some shallots produces moist, succulent results as long as you remember the two cardinal rules of fish cookery: choose only the freshest fish and don't overcook it. Serve topped with Light Lemon Sauce with Herbs or Creamy Dill Sauce.

Directions1. Preheat oven to 425�F. Coat a 9-inch glass pie pan or an 8-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray. 2. Place salmon, skin-side (or skinned-side) down, in the prepared pan. Sprinkle with wine. Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with shallots. Cover with foil and bake until opaque in the center and starting to flake, 15 to 25 minutes, depending on thickness. 3. When the salmon is ready, transfer to dinner plates. Spoon any liquid remaining in the pan over the salmon and serve with lemon wedges.
