Equipment

  • 1 Großes Backblech
  • 1 Backpapier
  • 1 kleiner Topf
  • 1 Küchenpinsel

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small salmon fillet about 500–600 g, skin on
  • 2 Organic oranges Juice and zest
  • 1 a bunch of fresh dill
  • 2 tablespoon of honey
  • 1 Tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard
  • sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • A handful of organic orange slices for garnish

Instructions
 

PREPARATION:

  • Rinse the salmon fillet under cold water and pat it dry thoroughly.
  • Place the fish skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (top and bottom heat).
  • Finely grate the zest of an orange.
  • Squeeze the juice from both oranges.
  • Finely chop the dill, discarding the thick stems.

COOKING STEPS:

  • Pour the orange juice, honey, and mustard into a small saucepan.
  • Let the mixture simmer over medium heat for about 5 to 8 minutes.
  • The liquid should take on a slightly syrupy consistency.
  • Stir the orange zest and half of the dill into the glaze.
  • Generously brush the salmon with the orange mixture.
  • Season the fish with sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
  • Arrange the orange slices decoratively on top of the salmon.
  • Garen Sie den Lachs im Ofen für ca. 15 bis 18 Minuten.
  • Make sure the center remains slightly translucent.

SERVE:

  • Carefully remove the salmon from the oven.
  • Sprinkle the remaining fresh dill over the hot fish.
  • Drizzle the remaining pan juices from the baking sheet over it.
  • It's best to serve the salmon fillet directly on the baking sheet or a large platter.
  • Serve it with a chilled glass of Pinot Gris from British Columbia.
