Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pound mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion)
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the citrus glaze over them. Let them marinate for 10 minutes.
- While the salmon is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Cut the mixed vegetables into bite-sized pieces and place them on a baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the mixture over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
- Place the marinated salmon fillets on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the salmon and vegetables in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Once done, remove the salmon and vegetables from the oven. Serve the citrus glazed salmon alongside the roasted vegetables. Enjoy!
Citrus glazed salmon has a rich history dating back to the Pacific Northwest, where the abundance of fresh salmon inspired chefs to create innovative dishes. The dish gained popularity in the 1980s when renowned chefs like Wolfgang Puck and Jean-Georges Vongerichten began featuring it on their menus. The tangy sweetness of the citrus glaze perfectly complements the rich, buttery flavor of the salmon, creating a harmonious balance of flavors. When served with a side of roasted vegetables, the dish becomes a wholesome and satisfying meal. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in upscale seafood restaurants and farm-to-table eateries, where chefs prioritize using high-quality, sustainable salmon and locally sourced seasonal vegetables. The key to perfecting this dish lies in achieving the ideal balance of citrusy sweetness in the glaze and ensuring the salmon is cooked to tender perfection. For a unique twist, some chefs also incorporate ingredients like honey, ginger, or soy sauce into the glaze, adding depth to the flavor profile. Whether enjoyed at a fine dining establishment or prepared at home, citrus glazed salmon with roasted vegetables is a delightful culinary experience that celebrates the natural bounty of the land and sea.
