How to Make Baked Tarragon Orange Salmon
- Zest one orange and juice 1/2 cup. In a resealable plastic bag, whisk together the orange zest, 1/2 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets to the bag, seal, and gently shake to coat evenly.
- Marinate in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours, but no longer to prevent the fish from becoming tough.
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Place the marinated salmon fillets in a greased casserole dish.
- Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Garnish with fresh orange slices before serving.
