SPICY ORANGE SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Drizzle olive oil into the bottom of a casserole dish. Lay salmon fillet atop the oil layer. Pour enough orange juice into the dish so the bottom third of the salmon is immersed in juice.
• Sprinkle Montreal steak seasoning and togarashi over the top of the fillet. Arrange orange slices and habanero pepper slices atop the fish.
• Bake in preheated oven until the flesh is light pink and flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes. Transfer fish to a serving platter and serve with the sauce from the dish on the side.

SOY-SESAME SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Whisk together soy sauce, honey, orange juice, toasted-sesame oil, and ginger in a medium glass baking dish. Add salmon fillets, skin side up. Let stand for 15 minutes to marinate.
• Transfer salmon to a rimmed baking sheet, flesh side up; reserve marinade. Broil salmon until flesh is slightly firm to the touch, 5 to 6 minutes. Meanwhile, bring marinade to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Drizzle glaze over salmon.

ORANGE SESAME GLAZED SALMON W/ EXTRA CRISPY SKIN

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix together all marinade ingredients. Be sure to reserving 1/2 cup of the water to use during the cooking process. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to broil with oven rack placed in the upper center position. Prepare a baking sheet by layering 2 strips of foil to cover the bottom of pan, then place an non-coated cooling rack over that.
• Brush skin side of salmon with olive oil (this will help to insure skin doesn't stick and become extra crispy), place fillets about 1-2 inches apart on the cooling rack in the center of backing sheet. Reserve half of marinade for glazing. Brush tops and sides of the salmon fillets with marinade. Let sit for 5-6 minutes.
• Broil, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes (or until fish flakes easily with a fork). Because you're broiling, it will cook quickly. Glaze OFTEN with reserved marinade to get a super sweet and sticky coating. Pour reserved water in bottom of pan half way through cooking time (helps finish cooking the fish and also keeps it moist and flaky).
• I like to serve mine with ginger lime shrimp and a roasted veggie like asparagus :).
