Description

Salmon is a versatile and flavorful fish that pairs wonderfully with various ingredients. In this recipe, inspired by Jamie Oliver, we enhance its natural richness with a sweet and tangy clementine glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Salmon fillets adjust based on the number of servings
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • 2 to 3 clementines depending on size
  • A few sprigs of fresh dill

For the Glaze:

  • 120 ml clementine juice
  • 120 ml apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce


Instructions

Prepare the Glaze:

  • In a saucepan, combine the clementine juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and soy sauce.

  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the glaze has reduced by half and slightly thickened.

  • Remove from heat and set aside.

Prepare the Salmon:

  • Rinse the clementines and slice them as thinly as possible. Remove any seeds.

  • Scrape the salmon skin gently to remove any remaining scales, but do not remove the skin.

  • Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil, then season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.

  • Place the fillets skin-side down in a baking dish large enough to fit them comfortably.

  • Lay the clementine slices evenly on top of the salmon.

  • Pour the prepared glaze over the fish and citrus slices.

  • Roast the salmon in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until cooked to your preferred doneness.

  • Baste the salmon occasionally with the cooking juices during baking.

  • If the clementine slices begin to brown too quickly, gently turn them over.

  • Before serving, garnish with fresh dill sprigs and spoon over some of the remaining glaze from the dish.
