So refreshing and super easy! I threw it together for the first time and my tastebuds were tingling from its blast of fruity citrus! The best salmon I've ever tasted!! great summer dish for grilling too! - Usually served with steamed or stir fried, veggies and a little brown rice!
Ingredients:
1 lb salmon fillet
2 tablespoons butter (spreadable)
1 tablespoon orange zest
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 1/2 teaspoons chives (fresh is best, but dried will do)
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (fresh ground)
Directions:
1. preheat oven to 450f.
2. line and baking sheet with foil, place salmon in center, skin down, and spread the butter over the fillet, as evenly as you can.
3. sprinkle cayenne, chives, oregano, salt, & pepper, and lastly the zests, over top of the fillet.
4. wrap and cover pretty tightly with foil. bake for 12- 15 min or until salmon flakes in the center. enjoy!
