California Salmon

I couldn't get a good picture of this fish, but the flavor is like nothing I have ever tasted on fish.
I found this recipe in a magazine under the "heart smart" section. Salmon screams heart healthy and I liked this recipe because it was sweet and spicy. A good way to dress up fish!

California Salmon

3 garlic cloves, minced
1 t. minced shallot or green onion
1 cup orange juice
1 T. balsamic vinegar
3 T. honey
1 T. chili powder
1/4 t. salt
1/8 t. pepper
1 lb. salmon fillet
2 T. minced fresh cilantro

In a small saucepan, saute garlic and shallot until tender. Add orange juice and vinegar. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until reduced to 1/4 cup. Stir in honey, chili powder, salt and pepper.

Make a double-layer aluminum foil "tray" and spray with cooking spray. Lay fish in the tray. Brush with 1/2 the sauce. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes, baste with more sauce. Bake 10 more minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
