Hoisin Glazed Salmon with Mango Pepper Salsa and Chinese Black Rice

 

When having people over for a dinner party, I think it’s safe to say most everyone is interested in making an entree that is impressive, but one that won’t involve a crazy amount of time spent frantically working in the kitchen all day to get it all prepared. Am I right?

Today, I have a spring entree that will add some “wow factor” to your guests at the dinner table, and have you saying to yourself “wow, that was easy!”

Begin with the freshest fish you can find; in this case, wild Alaskan King salmon, known for its rich, buttery flavor. It’s delicious all on its own, but with a little dressing up, it becomes something amazing.  I love entrees like this that let the  the fish shine through, with accents that enhance the flavor, rather than overpowering it.

Prepare a simple glaze that will be spooned over the fish just before baking in the oven. Once out of the oven you will top with a fresh mango/pepper salsa. Easy, right?
