Orange-Ginger Glazed Salmon created by Boomette

Salmon is one of the world's healthiest foods. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, selenium, vitamins D and B12, and protein, it's an absolute powerhouse of good nutrition. Better yet, it tastes great! Perfect for the hot days of summer the sweet orange-ginger glaze has just a tinge of heat from hot pepper flakes. If you prefer, an indoor grill or saute pan can be used to cook the salmon.

I didn't measure the lime juice. I used 2 limes. The sauce was too sour. Maybe the limes gave more than 1/4 cup. I'll try it again and maybe use less lime juice. Thanks Crafty Lady :) Made for Cookbook tag game

Wonderful, quick to put together and a beautiful blend of flavours. I made the full quantity of sauce for two servings and really glad I did because it went really well over the vegies as well.

Other than cutting the recipe in half for the 2 of us, I pretty much followed the recipe & we thoroughly enjoyed this salmon! I did use the fresh ginger & thought the citrus combo was great! Definitely a keeper of a recipe! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed for one of my group mates in the current Aus/NZ Recipe Swap]
