Delicious, Easy and Flavorful Orange, Lemon and Lime Marinated Baked, Grilled or BBQ Salmon!
Marinade:
Ingredients
Juice of 1 orange
Juice of 2 lemons
Juice of 2 limes
½ cup finely chopped baby Arugula leaves
½ teaspoon sugar
½ cup finely chopped onion
1-inch grated or finely chopped ginger
±750g salmon cut into 3 fillets
Method:
Mix together all the marinade ingredients and pour into a large Ziploc bag.
Add the salmon fillets and marinate for ±45-60 minutes. Do not marinade it for more than an hour, as the citrus will start to cook the salmon.
Remove salmon and ever so lightly pat dry with a paper towel, but do not remove the other ingredients from the salmon.
Season with salt.
Bake in the oven at 350F for 10-15 minutes, depending on how you like it cooked. Be careful not to overdo it as salmon can dry out very quickly if not careful.
Another option would be to grill it over medium-high heat, turning it over and grill both sides, or you can even BBQ it if you prefer.
Sprinkle with pepper as per your preference.
Serve with extra citrus juice and a side salad of Arugula leaves and baby tomato.

Salmon and citrus I love it and with just a touch of chilli awesome 🙂
Carol, knowing you, it must have chili
Of course I do one quite similar with salmon..I prefer fish to meat 🙂
Coming from a butcher family, we do quite a bit a meat, but must admit that lately we have cut back a lot and still do eat it but not so much as many moons ago.
I think most people are cutting down on meat now don’t you ?
We do as it’s only the two of us and with the price of meat nowadays, but for that matter any food, we do very small portions and try not to have any leftovers!
Yes, Meat cost is not too bad here..I get mine straight fom the farm so no middle man 🙂
Lucky you!!
