Grilled Orange Salmon

Ingredients
  

  • 2 oranges
  • 1 small handful of dill
  • 50 g butter (softened)
  • 1 pinch salt and black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 2 salmon fillets (about 300g each)
  • 1/2 cup vegetable stock

Notes

  • Preheat oven to 190°C/350°F.
  • Rinse the oranges, slice them directly with the skin, and remove the seeds.
  • Grease a large gratin dish with butter and arrange the slices of one orange on top. Finely chop the dill and add it to a large bowl along with the softened butter, salt, and black pepper. Stir well, then add the mustard and mix well.
  • Dry the salmon fillets with a clean paper towel and place them on top of the orange slices in the gratin dish.
  • Spread the seasoned butter from step 4 evenly over the salmon, then arrange the remaining orange slices on top of the salmon.
  • Add the vegetable stock to the gratin dish and bake the salmon in the oven for about 18-20 minutes.
  • Once the time is up, leave the salmon in the oven until the residual heat is cooked through.
  • When the salmon is cooked through, remove the gratin dish from the oven and arrange on a plate with the orange slices. Season with additional salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Spreading some wine-scented orange marmalade on the seared salmon fillets is also delicious. See the recipe below for instructions.
