How To Make salmon with citrus-mint gremolata

  • 1
    Mix mint, orange and lemon peel; set aside.
  • 2
    In a small bowl, stir together orange juice concentrate and lemon juice.
  • 3
    Preheat oven broiler. Rinse fish and pat dry.
  • 4
    In a 12 inch nonstick fry pan with oven proof handle, melt butter over medium-high heat. When butter sizzles, add fish, skin side down. Cook until skin is browned and crisp, about 6 minutes.
  • 5
    Gently slide spatula under skin of each fillet to release it from pan, but leave fish in pan.
  • 6
    Brush fish with about a quarter of the juice mixture. Leaving fish in pan, broil about 4 inches below heat until opaque but still moist-looking in thickest part, about 3-4 minutes.
  • 7
    Transfer fish to plates or a platter. Keep warm.
  • 8
    Add remaining juice to pan and stir to blend pan drippings. Place under broiler until sauce bubbles, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle mint mixture over fish and pour sauce over fish.
