Anyway, I made a great new salmon recipe yesterday and I LOVED IT. So, I decided to post it here! I originally found it on the Weight Watcher's website back when I was a member. I copied and pasted it into an email (tricky, right??!) and saved it for later. Yesterday, I found it, and I decided to give it a shot. Without further ado.....
Broiled Salmon with Citrus Salsa
Ingredients:
olive oil
salt and pepper
1 cup orange sections, coarsely chopped (I used one whole orange)
1 cup grapefruit sections, coarsely chopped (I used half of a grapefruit)
1/2 cup sweet red pepper (I didn't measure, but used half red pepper and half purple pepper)
1/2 cup onion
jalapeno pepper
1 tbsp sugar
filets of salmon
So, I don't really measure anything...just use whatever you feel would be tasty. :)
Place filets on the rack of a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper (I sprinkled with garlic salt, because...well, just because). Broil 10-12 minutes or until fish flakes.
In the meantime...combine all the other ingredients to make the salsa. Take the salmon out of the oven, and TADA! You have a super easy, super delish, refreshing and fun meal.
I served it with a microwaveable Seeds of Change quinoa/brown rice mix with garlic. It was fantastic. I also sauteed some onions in olive oil and then threw in some frozen butternut squash, covered it, and let it steam for awhile. When it was done, I just sprinkled a little bit of salt on, and - voila! A delish AND healthy meal!
Matt and I eat salmon once or twice a week (gotta get those Omega-3's in!), so I am always looking for a new and different salmon recipe so we don't get bored. I've done marinated salmon, salmon burgers, salmon tacos, baked salmon, spice-encrusted salmon...you name it! Do YOU have a tasty salmon recipe? If so, tell me about it!
Oops! Forgot to mention for all of you WW ladies that one filet with 2/3 cup salsa is approximately 9 points. I'm not sure I completely believe this, though, because it is SO light and fresh!

Oh how I wish I loved salmon. I really should try it again because I'm not picky and I like most things. Perhaps I just haven't had good salmon.
The recipe sounds quite good - actually so does the whole meal. The only hitch for me would be that I've never cooked salmon before, but I think I could follow this recipe well and not create a mini-kitchen disaster. I've always been scared about seasonings, but this would eliminate that worry. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
We eat salmon a couple times a week too, so I will definitely have to try this!
That sounds super delicious! I can never think of creative things to do with salmon.
Oh that sounds delicious! I'll have to try it soon!
I'll have to pass this onto my uncle. He only eats seafoods and fish.
Salmon burger recipe, por favor :)
I don't even like salmon and this sounds delicious!
