Slightly spicy, citrus salmon
This is one of my favorite, and super easy, recipes from the wonderful Alissa Segerston (you can find more of her recipes at wholelifenutrition.net)
Ingredients:
-
4 x single servings of wild Alaskan salmon fillets
-
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
-
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
-
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
-
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
-
2 T minced shallots
-
1-2 garlic cloves, minced
-
1-2 tsp of sea salt
-
1/2 - 1 tsp of crushed red chili flakes
Directions:
-
Rinse the salmon fillets, and place them skin side up in a shallow baking dish.
-
Make the marinade (by whisking all other ingredients together).
-
Pour the marinate over the salmon and let it marinate in the fridge for 2-4 hours.
-
Pre-heat the oven to 400 F.
-
Drain, and dispose of, the marinade.
-
Flip the fish so the skin side is down.
-
Bake uncovered for 10 minutes per inch of thickness.
-
Alissa advises taking it out of the oven just before it's cooked through to avoid overcooking it...as it will continue to cook after you take it out of the oven.
