Fish Fillets in Orange Sauce

Presented by Chef Zouheir

Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes | Servings: 4

Ingredients:

4 fish fillets (such as tilapia, cod, or salmon)

1/2 cup fresh orange juice

Zest of 1 orange

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce (ensure it's suitable)

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 bowl, combine the fresh orange juice, orange zest, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well and set aside.

2. Season the Fish

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.

3. Cook the Fish

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Add the fish fillets to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside.

4. Make the Sauce

In the same skillet, pour in the orange sauce mixture. Bring it to a simmer and cook for about 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.

5. Combine and Serve

Return the cooked fish fillets to the skillet, spooning the orange sauce over them. Let them cook together for an additional minute to absorb the flavours.

Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro and orange slices before serving.
