How to Make Orange Rosemary Salmon

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.
  2. Rinse 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets in salted water, pat dry, and place them in the prepared baking dish.
  3. Lightly season salmon with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, combine 2 tablespoons margarine, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1/4 cup orange juice, 1/2 fish bouillon cube (crumbled), 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Press the bouillon cube with a fork to fully dissolve.
  6. Bring the sauce to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
  7. Stir in 1 clove minced garlic and remove from heat.
  8. Drizzle half of the sauce over the salmon fillets, reserving the remaining sauce.
  9. Bake uncovered for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  10. Switch oven setting to broil.
  11. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the baked salmon.
  12. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges of the salmon are lightly browned.
  13. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy!
