I absolutely love this recipe for citrus salmon. Adding the juice and zest of a orange, lemon and lime with white wine on top of spinach is amazing. It tastes like something you would spend an ungodly amount of money on at a Seafood restaurant.

Ingredients

2-1/2 lb. fresh salmon
1/2 C. fresh orange juice
1/2 C. fresh lemon juice
1/2 C. fresh lime juice
1/2 C. white wine
Zest of 1 orange, lemon, and lime
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh spinach leaves
2 Tbs. olive oil

Directions

Cut salmon into 2-inch strips and season with salt and pepper. In a bowl, combine juices, zests, and white wine and set aside. In a pan (preferably a grill pan), heat olive oil. Place salmon into pan and braise on both sides until light pink. emove salmon from pan.

Add juice mixture to pan and deglaze pan. Cook for about 3 minutes on medium heat until starts to thicken. Add salmon back to pan and cover. Continue to cook salmon until falls apart (about 10-15 minutes more).

Serve on a bed of the fresh spinach leaves, pouring the sauce over the salmon.

Serves 4-6
