Sea Meets Citrus, Sweetly, In This Quick & Easy Recipe

Do you have picky eaters in your family? The kind who turn up their noses at the very thought of eating fish? If you do, this is the dish to serve that will change their minds.

This quick and easy salmon dish tastes like a million bucks. Your family will think you have been slaving over a hot stove all afternoon. They will never suspect that it only took 5 minutes of prep time and 10-12 minutes in your oven to turn out a meal with such great flavor. You can let that be your little secret!

It probably would never cross your mind to pair orange juice with maple syrup. What is that, anyway – some kind of strange breakfast shortcut? Actually, it makes the most amazing glaze that is used to coat the salmon before you bake it. For best results, baste with the glaze halfway through cooking, too.

Salmon, even without this delicious glaze, is not one of those “fishy-tasting” fish. It has certain meaty qualities in taste and texture. The glaze itself can be used for other meats, and even veggies, so since you are making zest anyway, you could make and freeze extra zest, or even make up some extra glaze to get a head start on future meal preparation.

Quick Tip:  If you want to get a head start on the preparation of this meal, you can make the glaze in advance. Just keep it in an airtight container in your fridge. It will last up to three days. You might want to make extra glaze and use it on other dishes, like veggies.
