This is another quick and easy weeknight meal that goes from the fridge to the table in 20 minutes. Pepper jelly, orange juice, and soy sauce provide a sweet/savory/ spicy balance that is delicious on the salmon and the green beans.
What you need:
1/4 cup of hot pepper jelly
zest + juice of half of an orange
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp vegetable oil
salt and pepper to taste (about 1 tsp)
1 tsp sesame seeds
1 lb of salmon
1 cup of green beans
Mix first 4 ingredients together in a bowl (microwaving the pepper jelly for 30 seconds will help). Put green beans in the bowl and mix around, scoop them out and place around the outer edges of a baking pan. I like to line the pan with parchment paper, but brushing or spraying vegetable oil will prevent sticking as well. Sprinkle salt and pepper over top of the salmon and green beans. Drizzle remaining sauce evenly on top of the salmon and then sprinkle the sesame seeds on as well. Bake at 400 for about 13-15 minutes. As soon as the fish starts to flake, its done. Serve with rice. Yum!
