Fish Fillets in Orange Sauce

Ingredients:

  • 4 fish fillets (such as tilapia, cod, or salmon)
  • ½ cup fresh orange juice
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (ensure it’s suitable for your dietary needs)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish
  • Orange slices for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Sauce:
    • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, orange zest, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
  2. Season the Fish:
    • Pat the fish fillets dry using paper towels.
    • Season both sides with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor.
  3. Cook the Fish:
    • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    • Place the fish fillets in the skillet and cook for approximately 3–4 minutes per side, until they develop a golden-brown crust and easily flake with a fork.
    • Remove the fillets from the skillet and set them aside.
  4. Prepare the Sauce:
    • In the same skillet, pour in the prepared orange sauce mixture.
    • Let it simmer for about 2–3 minutes, allowing it to slightly thicken.
  5. Combine and Serve:
    • Return the cooked fish fillets to the skillet, spooning the flavorful orange sauce over them.
    • Allow them to cook together for another minute to absorb the sauce.
    • Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro and orange slices.
