It was through serendipity that I’ve become friends with a lovely food blogger in town. I’ve mentioned Kate from the blog Kate’s Kitchen before. Since meeting on line, I’ve been to one of her fabulous parties, gone out to dinner with her and her hilarious hubby, run into her around town, and enjoyed cooking some of her fabulous recipes. She raved about this glazed salmon, and I’d been waiting for a rare rain-free evening this spring to fire up the grill.
Hubby, Bill, thoroughly enjoyed this dish…but didn’t even sample the salsa…just more for me! Tom was off to grill dinner at one of his friend’s house, so he took a ziplock bag complete with marinade and fillet…and made sure to ask me for the recipe. He knew his gal pals would ask about it~
Salmon with Marmalade Glaze…recipe courtesy of Kate Marvel via Simple and Delicious
3-4 8 ounce salmon fillets
1/2 cup soy
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup orange marmalade
Mix soy, mustard and lemon in a ziplock bag. Add salmon and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
While salmon is marinating, prepare grill.
Remove salmon from marinade and top with marmalade. Grill over indirect heat to desired doneness. Serve with Fruit Salsa.
Fruit Salsa…inspired by Gourmet LA
1 cup diced pineapple
1 kiwi, chopped
1 cup chopped mango
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3/4 cup diced bell peppers (I used some red, orange and yellow)
2 1/2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
4 teaspoons sugar
Combine ingredients, refrigerate to allow flavors to meld. Serve at room temperature.

Great. Is that a real dog? If yes, then very well trained. I would have difficulty sitting still in front of that food:)
I don’t know why I’ve never thought to serve a fruit salad with salmon. I’ve only ever done that with pork tenderloin. I’ll have to try it soon!
Thank you, both! And I had to giggle about our Lambeau being well trained…she is ONLY if a bribe is involved
Marshmallows and sweet potatoes are on the top of her list~
This salsa sounds amazing Liz!
That last photo with the dog is just darling!
Marmalade and salmon – lovely combo!
Terrific combo! Looks very refreshing and summery. And you captured the perfect picture with pooch looking on with wanting eyes!
I am so impatient to try that salsa, Lizzy!! Sounds terrific
And I do love your dog – what a cutieeee
This salmon looks perfectly smoky and sweet. Another bookmarked post for me!
I love glazed salmon. Thanks for posting this recipe!

I wish salmon were in my budget! I bet this would be good with chicken, though.
I have some salmon in the freezer. I never thought of mixing it with a fruit salad. Yum!
Wow, it must be the season for salmon and fruit salsa! We had almost the exact same meal last week. Yours looks delicious!

I wish I liked salmon! This looks great! Might have to try the salsa on a different protein!
Lovely combination of flavors: I like the idea of mixing Dijon with marmalade and salmon, sounds delicious and the addition of fruit so refreshing! Thanks for sharing and have a nice day
This dish looks amazing! I especially love that fruit salsa. Yum!
That mango salsa sounds to-die-for! Love the colors and flavors!
the salsa sounds amazing!! what a great idea. yummy!!
I do hope you fixed the dog a plate too!
To use one of Tommy’s phrases – nomnomnomnom
I must admit, i’m a little scared of salmon. But this recipe could tempt me to try it!
Lizzy-Thanks for yet, another delicious marinade for the salmon. Coincidentally, this marinade has always been a favorite for chicken wings, as well.
The fruit salsa is a perfect pairing with the salmon…love it:DDD
Lambeau is such a sweet doggie, if I lived closer to your I would love to watch her too. just like I do with my son’s and my daughter’s doggies too!
xoxo
The marmalade sounds like a great addition to the glaze. Definitely will try this one as we try to eat salmon often here.
I love when a few ingredients come together in a marinade. Great idea to apply the marmalade after it comes off the grill. I need to add champagne vinegar to my shopping list so we can try your fruit salsa.
That fruit salsa sounds so good. I bet it would be good with chicken too.
The marmalade on the salmon sounds is a stroke of genius, and that fruit salsa sounds incredible! Just yesterday I was going to make a mango salsa, and my husband talked me out of it, and told me I was wasting a perfectly good mango! I’m going to make it anyways with some chicken, and I hope he’ll give it a try! Beautiful post, Lizzy! Love the picture of your dog too
I can’t wait to try this glazed salmon as it looks so good. Unfortunately I would have to do a sub on the salsa because I can’t eat mango, so maybe pineapple would work?
This sounds great Lizzy. How every did you get your dog to not rip that salmon off the plate, mine wouldn’t have had such self control. I’m picking up more mangos this week there is a great sale going on right now. Hope you had a great holiday weekend.

Lizzy this certainly sounds like a not only just a beautiful dish but mouthwatering and delicious! I love salsa as well as glazed salmon!!!
I never thought I could have salmon with fruits. Interesting combination!
I love the salmon and fruit salsa combination! Such a light and summery dish – and the marmalade glaze sounds amazing =)
What a great match. I like how you added pineapple because when I add mango, I wouldn’t think of pineapple! Great idea. I love champagne vinegar and I’m going to try this fruit salsa soon!
What a beautiful dish. I love salmon and am always looking for new ways to try it. Im jealous that you have a foodie friend so close too! I’d love to have someone nearby to chat with.
Terrific recipe/s Lizzy!!! I am surely going to try that salmon… the salsa looks amazing too. I love mangoes and any kind of “sweet and sourish” dishes!
This sounds phenomenal Lizzy! I love fruit salsa and salmon so I know the dish would be a hit. All of the colors just make me smile
Just love salmon I just made something similar over the weekend but this with the mango rules!
I love the photo of your pup!! Awwww soooo cute! The salmon sounds wonderful… pairing it with some mango salsa is genius!!
We came late to the appreciation of salmon, but having finally gotten there, this recipe is a must have on the seafood menu. Love the freshness of the salsa, and the orange marmalade is just perfect, too. Very yummy, thanks!
Fantastic summer dinner! I eat salmon all the time, and I will definitely be trying this out! Love the salsa, and that adorable pic of your pup!
The salsa is a perfect pair for this dish. So refreshing.
The salmon looks incredible. I love the idea of a fruit salsa. It looks soooo good!
This looks so delicious and appealing to the eyes. A true feast for the eyes and the palette. Am a new following from MBC. and I am lovin your blog!
I actually have all these ingredients and will make this tonight. To reduce calories, the 4teaspoons of sugar will be ommited from the fruit and I am going to forgo the orange marmalade glaze.
Wow, this salmon looks so flavorful!! I think we both had fish for dinner and they were both healthy!! YUM! : )
