- Ingredients
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 1 Tbsp fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 4 fresh Salmon fillet (6 oz each)
- lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
- kosher salt (to taste)
- freshly ground Black pepper (to taste)
- 1 Tbsp herbes de Provence
- 1 bunch scallions (washed and trimmed)
- 1 Acorn squash (baked, peeled and cut)
- 2 extra virgin olive oil
Preparation steps
1.
Whisk together orange juice, thyme, and oregano in a small bowl. Put half the mixture in a re-sealable bag. Add the salmon, set aside to marinate 5 minutes.
2.
Transfer remaining sauce to a pan over medium heat. Bring to a bubble and reduce heat to a simmer for 10 minutes, until the sauce reduces slightly.
3.
Heat broiler and line a baking sheet or broiler pan with aluminum foil. Position the top rack 6 to 8 inches from the boiler.
4.
In a small bowl combine the zest, salt, pepper, and Herbs de Provence. Remove salmon from marinade and place on baking sheet. Discard marinade. Season the salmon with the lemon zest and herb mixture. Add the scallions and squash to the broiler pan, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 8–10 minutes.
5.
Plate the salmon over the scallions and squash. Top with the reduced citrus sauce and serve.
