The foods in this easy recipe are powerhouses of nutrition. Why these foods are good for you: high omega-3 fat in salmon; antioxidants in orange rind, scallions and garlic; anticoagulant activity in ginger; and eating fatty fish could prevent an astounding 80% of sudden deaths from heart attacks, Harvard investigators say.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillets: Look for fillets that are firm to the touch and have a vibrant orange color. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a dull color.
  • Use fresh oranges: Fresh oranges will give your salmon a brighter flavor and aroma. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use bottled orange juice, but be sure to dilute it with water so that it's not too concentrated.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. The best way to tell if it's done is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If the flesh is opaque and flakes easily, it's done.
  • Let the salmon rest before serving: After you've cooked the salmon, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the fillet, making it more flavorful.

Conclusion:

Grilled Orange and Bourbon Salmon Fillets is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet oranges, smoky bourbon, and tender salmon is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook salmon, give this recipe a try!
