Recipe of Orange-style salmon with almonds

Ingredients

• 1 salmon tail (or 1 slice per person).
• 40 gr. of unsalted butter.
• 1 onion.
• 1 clove of garlic.
• 2 oranges
• 150 g of almonds.
• Salt, pepper and dill.

Directions

1. 1

   In a saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the chopped garlic and onion, with a little salt.

2. 2

   When the vegetable is poached, add the almonds, which we have chopped beforehand, so that they can also be browned.

3. 3

   Add a teaspoon of flour and stir well so that it toasts.

4. 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. 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. 6

   In another pan, cook the salmon over high heat for two minutes on each side, to sear it.

7. 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. 8

   Serve the salmon with its sauce and garnish with a little orange zest.
