Tips:
- Use fresh salmon fillets. Fresh salmon has a more delicate flavor and texture than frozen salmon.
- Choose oranges with a deep orange color. The deeper the orange color, the sweeter and more flavorful the juice will be.
- Toast the pecans before using them. Toasting the pecans will bring out their nutty flavor and make them more fragrant.
- Don't overcook the salmon. Salmon is a delicate fish and it cooks quickly. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served hot and fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
This pecan orange salmon recipe is a delicious and easy way to prepare salmon. The orange juice and pecans add a sweet and nutty flavor to the salmon, while the butter and herbs add richness and moisture. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
