Step by Step Method
Step 1
Make blood orange salsa. Combine blood orange sections, tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, cilantro and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate a minimum of 1 hour.
Step 2
Brush each salmon fillet with 1 teaspoon of olive oil - 1/2 teaspoon per side. Season fillets with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3
Combine cumin, coriander and cinnamon, mixing well. Press 2 teaspoons of spice mixture on top of each fillet.
Step 4
Heat an ovenproof skillet (cast iron would be great) to smoking. Place salmon fillets, spice coated side down, and sear until blackened, about 1 - 2 minutes.
Step 5
Turn salmon fillets and sear plain side down.
Step 6
Remove pan from heat and place in a 350 degree preheated oven for 5 – 10 minutes and cook salmon until desired doneness. Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of fillet.
Step 7
Place cooked salmon fillets on serving plates and top each with 1/4 cup blood Orange Salsa. Serve.
