This is a super quick recipe for an orange and honey glazed oven baked salmon. It's a go-to when I don't have time but want a healthy meal.
A quick marinade to drizzle over the salmon consists of:
- Half an orange
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper
Be sure to keep an eye on the salmon as not to overcook it. You want that perfectly tender piece that is JUST cooked.
Orange Honey Salmon tastes great over an arugula salad.
