Citrus Roasted Salmon

Raw salmon to start out with.

Here I have the citrus sauce mixed up together with ingredients showing.

Delicious citrus roasted salmon over brown rice with mozzarella cheese veggies and orange slices. This salmon recipe is a favorite meals of ours.


Citrus Roasted Salmon (spicy)

2 Tbsp. Lemon Juice
2 Tbsp. honey
4 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground red pepper
1 cup orange juice
2 salmon fillets

Mix all the ingredients together expect for the salmon in a bowl. Cut a few slits on one side of the salmon and while grilling the salmon pour a little bit of the sauce over top. Boil the rest of the sauce in a sauce pan to let thicken up. Once the salmon is almost all the way cooked through, pour the rest of the sauce onto salmon in pan. Finish grilling salmon and serve the salmon with sauce over rice. (You could also use chicken instead of salmon in this recipe.)

I received this recipe from Amy Parkin, a church friend in New York, but I have decreased the amount of salmon to double the sauce amount because it is so tasty. The recipe normally called for 4 salmon fillets.
