Orange Glazed Salmon

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 4 (6-ounce) salmon filets, (Alaskan Sockeye or Coho)
  • 1 orange, juiced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons tamari
  • 1 teaspoon thyme, finely chopped
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon flour
  • 1 teaspoon water

Pat salmon dry with a paper towel, then season with salt and pepper.  

Heat the avocado oil in a pan on medium high heat. Add salmon and cook for 3-4 minutes each side.

While the salmon is cooking, make an arrowroot slurry by stirring together the arrowroot powder and water. Set aside. 

Once the salmon is cooked, transfer to a plate.

Turn the heat down to medium-low and sauté the minced garlic in the pan for 30 seconds. Add the orange juice, honey, tamari, thyme and arrowroot slurry. Whisk the ingredients together for 1-2 minutes or until slightly thickened.

Add the salmon back to pan and spoon glaze over salmon before serving.
