Sweet and Spicy Salmon

[Chancie 65]

I found this recipe and tried it tonight..... I really liked it, as did my son.

This was so quick and EZ!!! I used SF orange marmalade, so it took some calories out-

Ingredients

16 ounces salmon filets

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, more or less to your taste

4 tablespoons marmalade, any flavor

Directions

1. Rinse filets in Water and pat dry. Sprinkle evenly on top side (non-skin) with cayenne pepper.

2. In a hot frying pan sear salmon on each side for 45-60 seconds.

3. In a small microwave-proof bowl, spoon the marmalade. Microwave for 30 seconds to melt/liquify .

4. Turn salmon fillets, top side up. Spoon a half a tablespoon of liquid marmalade over each filet. Flip immediately. Spoon a half tablespoon over the bottom of each filet. Flip after the top sides have cooked 1 minute. Spoon any remaining marmalade over the tops, reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook until the fish is done (2-3 minutes).

5. Serve immediately, spooning any marmalde that has melted into the bottom of the pan over the fish.

Chancie -

SOUNDS DIVINE -- Bearded and I both love Salmon and I have some in the freezer -- have a feeling I'm going to have a long grocery list this weekend, but variety will be nice for a change.

Thanks!

I think is great to eat salmon, because of the Omega oil...
