Ginger Glazed Salmon

Take a handful of ingredients you probably have on hand and you can prepare this dinner-party worthy salmon dish in minutes.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
• 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons grated, peeled fresh ginger
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 4 salmon fillets

Directions:

1. Combine everything except the salmon in a large re-sealable plastic bag (make sure the bag is large enough to hold the marinade and all of the fish); add the salmon to the bag, press out any remaining air in the bag and seal it; turn the bag until all of the fish is evenly coated; place the bag in the refrigerator and marinate the fish for at least 30 minutes. Take the salmon out of the bag and set the marinade aside (don't throw the marinade away).
2. Preheat the broiler. Spray a baking sheet evenly with nonstick spray; place the salmon on the baking sheet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through (thicker fillets will need extra cooking time); baste the fish frequently with the marinade you set aside.
3. Bring the remaining marinade to a boil in a small saucepan; let the sauce boil for about a minute, stirring frequently. Serve the sauce with the salmon. Serves four.
