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.

Place a layer of onion slices over the orange. Drizzle with a little bit of olive oil, and sprinkle with half of the herb mixture.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Place orange slices in single layer in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Top with onion slices. Drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until onion is brown and tender, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven. Increase oven temperature to 450°F.
- Push orange and onion slices to side of baking dish. Arrange salmon in center of dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and 1 1/2 tablespoons dill. Spoon orange and onion slices atop salmon. Roast until salmon is opaque in center, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix orange juice, green onions, lemon juice and remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons dill in small bowl.
- Transfer salmon to platter. Spoon onion alongside; discard roasted orange slices. Pour orange sauce over fish. Garnish with additional orange slices.
Tips:
- Choose the right salmon: Look for wild-caught or sustainably farmed salmon that is fresh, firm, and has a vibrant color. Opt for a salmon fillet or steak that is about 1 inch thick.
- Roast the salmon at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy skin and a tender, juicy interior. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) before roasting.
- Use a flavorful marinade: Marinating the salmon before roasting infuses it with flavor and helps to keep it moist. Make a simple marinade by mixing olive oil, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, and herbs like thyme or rosemary.
- Roast the salmon skin-side up: This will help to protect the delicate flesh of the salmon and create a crispy skin.
- Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through: Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. The salmon is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- Serve the salmon with a flavorful sauce or garnish: A simple lemon butter sauce or a sprinkle of fresh herbs can enhance the flavor of the roasted salmon.
Conclusion:
Orange roasted salmon is a simple yet delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can create a flavorful and juicy roasted salmon that will impress your friends and family. With its crispy skin, tender flesh, and vibrant orange flavor, this dish is sure to be a hit.
