Recipe of Orange-style salmon with almonds
Vida Recetas Editorial
Orange-style salmon with almonds is an easy and elegant recipe that combines the intense flavor of the fish with citrus freshness and the crunchy touch of almonds. Originally from Mediterranean cuisine, this dish has earned a place on tables worldwide for its balance between health and taste. Salmon, rich in omega-3 and protein, is seared on high heat to keep it juicy, while the orange, onion, and garlic sauce is lightly thickened and blended at medium power to preserve texture. The result is an aromatic sauce that coats the fish without masking it. Ideal for a special dinner or a nutritious lunch, it is served with white rice or a green salad. Almonds add a crunchy contrast and an extra boost of fiber and vitamin E. This version is perfect for those seeking a sophisticated yet simple meal, with accessible ingredients and a short cooking time. If you like salmon, this recipe will become a classic in your kitchen.

Ingredients
Directions
-
1
In a saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the chopped garlic and onion, with a little salt.
-
2
When the vegetable is poached, add the almonds, which we have chopped beforehand, so that they can also be browned.
-
3
Add a teaspoon of flour and stir well so that it toasts.
-
4
Then add the natural juice of the two oranges and let it boil. Lower the heat and let it thicken a little. We tasted and peppered.
-
5
When the sauce is done, we pass it through the blender, but at medium power, because we don't want to turn it into “puree”, but to ensure that all the ingredients are well linked, but that we keep finding the almonds in very small pieces.
-
6
In another pan, cook the salmon over high heat for two minutes on each side, to sear it.
-
7
Transfer the salmon to the casserole, over the orange sauce, and sprinkle with the dill. Let it cook for about 4 minutes with the container covered so that it is finished and thoroughly soaked in all the flavors. The time will vary depending on the thickness of the salmon.
-
8
Serve the salmon with its sauce and garnish with a little orange zest.
