Spicy Tangerine Salmon
This vibrant dish features salmon fillets marinated in a zesty tangerine sauce, delivering a fresh and exciting flavor profile. Whether grilled or baked, it is an excellent addition to any dinner menu.
Ingredients:
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed tangerine juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh tangerine slices, for garnish
- Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together tangerine juice, soy sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top. Ensure the fillets are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infiltrate the fish.
- Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat. If grilling, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Remove the salmon from the marinade, allowing the excess to drip off, and place the fillets on the grill or a baking sheet if using the oven.
- Cook the salmon for about 4–5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches your desired level of doneness. If using the oven, bake for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Once cooked, remove from heat and let rest for a couple of minutes. Serve garnished with fresh tangerine slices and chopped cilantro for an added burst of freshness.
This Spicy Tangerine Salmon is not just a meal; it’s an experience. The combination of zest, sweetness, and spice will leave your palate dancing, making it a perfect option for any occasion.
