Celebrate Fishing Season with This Great Recipe

In celebration of the opening of fishing season, we have decided to dedicate a blog to fish—salmon in particular. Why salmon? Because it is high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) – or, in laymen’s terms, a fat that helps to prevent gum disease.

Yes, if your diet is rich in fish, you are 30% less likely to get gum disease than your non-fishing eating counterparts. And as dentists AND fisherman, we love this!

That being said, celebrate the opening of fishing season with this delicious salmon recipe:

Ingredients

·     1/2 cup orange marmalade

·     1 tablespoon Dijon mustard $

·     1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

·     1/2 teaspoon salt

·     1/4 teaspoon black pepper

·     1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

·     4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets $

·     Cooking spray

Preparation

Preheat broiler.

Combine first 6 ingredients in a small bowl, stirring well. Place fish on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Brush half of marmalade mixture over fish; broil 6 minutes. Brush fish with remaining marmalade mixture; broil for 2 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.

The best part about this recipe: It only takes 8 minutes!

Note: *Tried this recipe, and it works great with other fishes as well!*

Happy Fishing Minnesota!
