Orange Salmon with Creole Seasoning
This is a delicious and easy recipe. Great for a romantic dinner on Valentine's Day or any day of the year. Goes great with white rice and snap peas.

This is a good basic recipe as far as type of ingredients go. I sprinkled the salmon with the cajun seasoning and cooked on medium heat with olive oil and butter - kind of gave it a nice seared outside then after i flipped it once I drizzled just a bit of orange on each piece of salmon then after the salmon was done I made the orange juice into a glaze type - I poured the fresh squeezed orange juice (I used 2 oranges) into the pan threw a dash of cajun seasoning and I added a few drizzles of honey (to taste)and let it come to a boil then served the glaze with the salmon. My husband said it was wonderful - one of the best salmon recipes he had eaten. I did not use any measurements from this recipe I just did everything to taste or what I thought was "good enough" the amount of seasoning that I used gave the fish a really good bite not hot but a good bite. Very good and will make again.

Ok I'm going to be one of those obnoxious people who totally changes a recipe and then rates it...I had a salmon filet and very little time, so I was looking for something fast and with no special ingredients to go buy. I didn't have Creole seasoning and I don't even know what's in that so I used chili pepper, hot curry powder, and Chinese 5 spice powder (very random, I know). Then, what I thought was an orange in the back of the fridge turned out to be a grapefruit! I just used that anyway, although there wasn't enough juice and after a few minutes it was becoming a thick syrup in the pan so I added a little mango nectar, the only juice we had. But despite my complete lack of following the recipe, the salmon was delicious! It just goes to show this is a very flexible recipe, you can use any seasonings and any juice and get great results. I'll definitely try to original version next time though!
This is a good recipe for non-salmon lovers and those who have a hard time cooking fish without drying it out. I did add some butter and some soy sauce to enhance the flavors. We will eat this again soon.
I think that the salmon steaks are too thick for this recipe, next time I will try filets. I used frozen orange juice and let the last 5 minutes cook with the lid on, the salmon came out nice and flaky. I will try again.
This recipe was pretty good. I did make a few changes of my own. First, I used Blackened Seasoning instead of Creole, and added a little Garlic Herb Mrs. Dash. I chopped one clove of fresh garlic and added that, next time I will probably cut that in half. I used a Blood Orange for the juice. I also added about 3 Tablespoons of low sodium Soy Sauce to the orange juice. I baked in the oven at 350 for about 10 minutes before adding the orange juice and soy sauce mix. Then I baked for about 15 minutes more. Next time, I think I will just pour the orange juice on before the whole baking process, as the blood orange flavor was very light, almost not there. I like my flavors to really pop. Served with plain mashed potatoes and lemon herbed asparagus spears. This was a hit with my family!
I had some red snapper in the freezer, along with some lime juice concentrate. The cajun seasoning gave it the bite, and the conentrate gave it some sweet! It was great. Will use this recipe again.
Really yummy recipe. My one orange didn't produce a lot of juice, so I added some lime and lemon juice and it gave the fish a really nice citrus flavour that went really well with the spice of the Creole seasoning! Served it with rice and drizzled the leftover citrus juices from the pan on top of the rice. YUM. Definitely going to make this again.
Subbed Salmon with Steelhead... this was fantastic!! Loved it. Used two 1/2 pound filets instead of the steaks. Beautiful.
Easy and delicious- two of my favorite adjectives! I haven't been cooking for that long but this turned out great. I plan to make it again.

Subbed the vegetable oil for avocado oil. Nice easy to throw together recipe with minimal ingredients and effort. I also used salmon fillets, and if you do that, keep an eye on the cooking time, depending on their thickness....salmon can be unforgiving if severely overcooked.
we LOVED this! my eleven year old daughter didnt want to try it, but once she did she loved it and wanted more. I didn't have an orange, so I used some orange juice concentrate which i put over the salmon, and sprinkled the creole seasoning on top before baking at 350 degrees for a half hour. It was soooo YUMMY.
This recipe was amazing!! I did tweak the recipe a tich- I put a lot of Creole seasoning on the salmon, a little honey and a little lime juice. My boyfriend really likes Cajun cooking and he loved this meal, I made it and put it on top of a salad, he even said he ate the rest of it the next night for a light dinner and it was even better.
Omg!!! So good, the fish melted in my mouth like butter. I subbed oil for coconut oil. And yum.
Delicious! Thanks for a great, easy, fast way to cook salmon. My newest favorite way to fix it.
Very easy recipe to follow and execute. I substituted orange juice for the orange... bad idea. Got a hit of orange, but clearly this dish needs that flavor for completeness.
So easy, but tastes like something served at a restaurant. I used some store bought orange juice. My husband kept saying how good it was. A winner!
