Orange relish is a delicious condiment that adds a sweet and tangy note to the dish, and it also helps to keep the salmon moist and juicy. This recipe will guide you through the process of making a flavorful and healthy citrus salmon with orange relish.

CITRUS BAKED SALMON
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large 9 by 13 shallow baking dish place 1 lemon slice with 1 orange slice side by side so you'll end up with 4 groups. Each salmon fillet will have its own bed of citrus. Season each fillet with salt and pepper then place each salmon fillet over the 2 slices of lemon and orange. In a small bowl mix the dill, sun-dried tomatoes and tomato oil. Divide mixture on top of the salmon fillet, then drizzle with the wine. Place the baking dish in the oven and cook for 8 to 10 minutes.
ORANGE ROASTED SALMON
I like to make this for company since you can get it ready ahead of time up until the final baking step. It looks both pretty and impressive, and the orange flavor is more subtle than you'd expect. This is a healthy and elegant meal (not to mention delicious) when served with a leafy salad, brown rice, and asparagus.

FISH WITH CITRUS-CHILE SAUCE
This light yet earthy sauce lends a generous, almost floral warmth to any white, sturdy fish. For heat, there are crushed Calabrian chiles, smoky and sunny; for a mellow sourness, Moscatel vinegar - feel free to substitute apple cider vinegar and a little sugar to approximate the same fruitiness; and for funk, fermented white pepper (although regular white pepper will work too). Other notes include delicate marjoram, cousin to oregano but less forward, with its comforting contour of balsam, and Timur pepper from Nepal, fragrant and bright, calling to mind a just-peeled tangerine. (If you use Sichuan pepper instead, give it a citrus boost with extra orange juice and a shower of orange zest.) The sauce comes out denser than a vinaigrette but still loose and the orange-red of a young sunset.

Steps:
- Make the sauce: Toast the Timur pepper in a dry skillet over medium heat. When the pods are fragrant but not yet darker brown, remove them from the heat and let cool. Using a spice grinder or a mortar and pestle, crush into a fine powder, along with the white peppercorns.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, chiles, marjoram, juice, garlic and the freshly ground Timur and white pepper. Let sit for 30 minutes for the flavors to meld, then gradually whisk in the olive oil. Add salt. Taste and add more of whichever seasonings you like, whisking as you go. Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- Make the fish: Pat the fish dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper. If cooking on the stovetop, coat a skillet with oil and heat over medium-high. (The skillet should be large enough to hold all the fillets with space between them. If it isn't, work in batches.) Carefully add the fish to the hot oil and pan-fry the fish until browned, about 3 minutes on each side. (Gently probe the fish with a fork; if it flakes, it's done.) Remove from the heat and transfer to plates.
- If grilling, heat a grill to medium-high. Generously brush or rub the fish with olive oil to coat. Place on the hot grill grates, skin side down if there's skin and cover if using a gas grill. Cook until the fish releases easily from the grate, about 3 minutes. For thinner fillets, the flesh will be just opaque throughout and starting to gape and the fillets don't need to be flipped. Simply transfer them to plates. For thick fillets or steaks, carefully flip the fish and cook until just opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes more, then transfer to plates. Spoon the sauce over the fish and serve.
CHILE-GLAZED SALMON WITH ORANGE SALSA
Steps:
- Make salsa:
- Cut peel and any white pith from oranges with a sharp knife, then cut sections free from membranes, letting them drop into a bowl. Stir in remaining salsa ingredients.
- Prepare salmon:
- Preheat broiler.
- Season salmon with salt on all sides. Arrange on rack of a broiler pan, skin sides down, and broil about 4 inches from heat 4 minutes. Spoon glaze on top and spread onto sides, then sprinkle with fennel seeds and cracked pepper. Broil until glaze is bubbly and fish is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more.
- Serve salmon with salsa.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is fresh and has a firm texture. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often lower in nutrients and higher in contaminants.
- Cook the salmon properly. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it carefully to avoid overcooking. The best way to cook salmon is to bake it in the oven at a moderate temperature until it is just cooked through.
- Make sure the orange relish is flavorful. The orange relish is a key component of this dish, so it is important to make sure it is flavorful. Use fresh oranges and a variety of herbs and spices to create a relish that is both sweet and tangy.
- Serve the salmon with a variety of sides. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, steamed rice, or a simple salad. Choose sides that complement the flavors of the salmon and the orange relish.
Conclusion:
Citrus salmon with orange relish is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own tastes. Whether you like your salmon cooked rare or well-done, this dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
