Orange Marmalade Marinated Salmon, Chicken. or Pork

I just love Salmon and I'd say this is my favorite to date. This has an Asian touch. Lots of flavor. I did make this with Salmon but its possibilities are endless like tuna, Mahi Mahi, shrimp, orange roughy... I bet grilled pineapple in this marinade along with the fish or meat would be great! Cooking in a basket will caramelize the fish giving it a crispness and ease in turning it and cooking in foil will keep it moist as well as ease in flipping the fish. Cooking time is up to you I like my salmon very tender so I tend not to overcook it. This is great served on white rice. Leftovers would be great on a salad. The picture here is the salmon made under the broiler.

Very good! My "pinch" of red pepper flakes was way more than a pinch cause my family likes it spicy. But other than that I made the recipe as written and used it on salmon. Even my fish-hating daughter liked it.

    Husband and I love this (we used chicken), but we both think it can handle a little more "zing". I'd use a full 1/4 tsp of the chili flakes next time. As it stands, it is an amazing Chinese flavor that would be absolutely fantastic for kids.

    Wow! Rita, you're the queen of marinades in my book. I wasn't sure how this would turn out with the orange marmalade, but it gives it a really great flavor! I made this using chicken breasts and grilled them on my George Foreman, since there's still snow outside and I couldn't access the grill! I omitted the chili pepper and had to use onion powder in place of the flakes, but otherwise made the marinade exactly as directed and it turned out fabulous. Thanks for another great barbeque recipe!

    This was fabulous! I used chicken breasts instead of salmon, and it was to die for. The only substitution I made was 1/3 c. honey and 4 tsp. frozen OJ concentrate in place of the marmalade. Very tasty... this is going in my permanent file!
