Poached Salmon with Orange & Fennel
Orange
Salmon with Fennel
This is one
of my husband's favorite meals and I consider it the ultimate poached salmon recipe.
I was inspired by watching Ina Garten bake a whole 10 lb. salmon using fennel
and orange on one of her episodes and was intrigued by the flavor combination.
This is a recipe that I've been "perfecting" since. This recipe uses
salmon filets, not whole salmon. Poaching the salmon in the tasty orange marinade
assures it stays moist. Like
Ina's original recipe, this left over salmon (if there is any) makes a fantastic
salad for lunch the next day.

1/4 - 1/2 cup orange juice (carton/prepared frozen)

Whisk together vegetable
oil, orange zest, fresh and carton/prepared frozen orange juice and marmalade.

in the turning fish once.
Due
to cooking time start the fennel dish first.

thinly.

fennel fronds to add later.

in a tablespoon or two of the orange marmalade.

In a deep large skillet
place all the marinade and the salmon (skin side down first) .
