Easy Sweet and Savory Orange Rosemary Glazed Salmon
This Orange Rosemary Glazed Salmon is bright, savory, and packed with flavor. Fresh rosemary and zesty orange juice combine to create a sticky-sweet glaze over tender, flaky salmon. Perfect for an elegant dinner or a quick weeknight meal.
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets 6 oz each
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- For the Glaze:
- 1 cup fresh orange juice from about 2 oranges
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp orange zest
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 2 tsp fresh rosemary finely chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water optional, for thickening
Instructions
- Make the glaze:
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine orange juice, honey, zest, soy sauce, rosemary, and garlic. Simmer until reduced by about half (8–10 minutes). For a thicker glaze, stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer another 1–2 minutes.
- Prepare the salmon:
- Pat salmon dry and season with salt and pepper.
- Sear the salmon:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place salmon skin-side up and sear for 3–4 minutes until golden. Flip and cook another 3–4 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Glaze and serve:
- Brush the salmon with the orange rosemary glaze. Serve extra glaze on the side with steamed vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
Notes
- Use blood oranges for a more dramatic presentation and deeper flavor.
- Can be baked instead: Bake salmon at 400°F for 12–15 minutes, then brush with glaze.
- Great with roasted Brussels sprouts, mashed sweet potatoes, or a couscous salad.
