Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup orange juice
  • 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lite soy sauce
  • 1 small red Thai chile pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, grated
  • 4 (4- to 6-ounce) salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Hot cooked rice
  • Garnishes: sprouts, fresh cilantro, carrot and pepper strips, and edamame*

Method

  • Stir together first 6 ingredients in a glass baking dish or shallow bowl. Add salmon, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, turning to coat evenly. Marinate at least 30 minutes. Remove salmon, reserving marinade, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, and add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook salmon 3 to 4 minutes per side or until fish begins to flake with fork; remove from pan. Pour reserved marinade into skillet, and add honey. Heat about 3 minutes or until syrupy. Serve salmon warm over a mound of rice, topped with sauce. Garnish, if desired.
  • *Edamame is available in the freezer section of most supermarkets.
