Fish in Orange Sauce

This recipe was originally made with Shrimp, but since I am alergic to shrimp, I prepared it with salmon. It would be good with any fish or chicken. I served it with a couscous mixed with mint, feta cheese, cucumber, and tomato.

Fish in Orange Sauce

Ingredients

• 1-1 1/2 pounds salmon fillet


• 1T. olive oil


• 3/4 c. mayonnaise


• 1T. orange zest


• 2T. orange juice


• 1T. white wine vinegar


• 1/4c. minced dill


• 2T. capers, drained


• 2T. diced red onion

Directions

Prepare the fish filets. I poached the filets in water and lemon juice and allowed them to cool.

While the fish is cooling, make the sauce. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, orange zest and orange juice, vinegar, 1/2tsp. salt and 1/2tsp. pepper. Add the dill, capers, and red onion and toss well. Pour over salmon fillets. The flavors will improve if you allow the dish to sit at room temperature for an hour.

The original dish was made with shrimp, and the shrimp and sauce were combined and allowed to sit. Or you can lightly pan fry any white fish, then pour the sauce over the warm fish. Enjoy
