Orange Chinese 5 Spice Salmon

This is a recipe I found online and wanted to give it a try. I thought it has some good flavor. While cooking the sauce however I didnt find the glaze sweet enough so I did throw in about 2 tablespoons of sugar.

1 ½  cups orange juice
2 tbsp grated fresh ginger
¼ cup soy sauce
½ tsp pepper
1 tsp five spice powder
Few drops sesame oil
Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes before thickening with a slurry of 1 tsp corn starch dissolved in a little water.



Four 6 ounce salmon fillet portions, about 1 1/2 inches thick.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place the salmon fillets on a parchment lined baking sheet, season with salt and pepper and bake for about 15 minutes. 



At this point begin brushing the glaze on the salmon and returning it to the oven for a couple of minutes between coatings. about 3 times. You can always add more of the sauce to the fish when serving.
