How to Make Orange-Rosemary Glazed Salmon
  1. In a large non-stick sauté pan, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  2. Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Add to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Add minced garlic and rosemary to the pan and sauté for about 20 seconds until fragrant. Pour in 1/4 cup of chicken broth and let simmer until mostly reduced.
  4. Stir in orange zest, orange juice, lemon juice, and honey. Mix remaining 1 Tbsp chicken broth with cornstarch and add it to the pan.
  5. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until thickened.
  6. Add salmon back into the pan, spooning sauce over each fillet.
