This Orange Salmon is an easy to make one pan meal that's perfect for weeknight dinner. It requires just a handful of ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to make start to finish. The salmon is seared and then coated in a delicious sweet and sticky orange sauce.
Generously season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Add the oil to a pan over medium high heat, and once hot, add in the salmon fillets skin side up and cook them for 4 minutes until a crust forms before flipping and cooking for an additional 2 minutes. Remove the salmon from the pan and set them aside on a plate.
Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and saute for 2 minutes before adding in the orange juice, coconut aminos, honey and apple cider vinegar. Add in the orange slices and leave the sauce to simmer for approximately 5 minutes until it has reduced and thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Return the salmon to the pan and spoon some of the sauce over each of the fillets. Leave the salmon to cook for a 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Arrange half an orange slice from the sauce over each of the salmon fillets and garnish with chopped scallions before serving.
