Chipotle Orange Glazed Salmon with Roasted Broccoli

Salmon courtesy of Good Housekeeping Magazine

Monday -- the day that we usually try to start fresh and eat healthy. We were successful tonight and went for some broiled salmon with broccoli. The sauce for this recipe was very easy in a mini food processor (or you could use a blender) and it's pretty quick! You could serve this with whichever vegetables you want if trying to cut back on carbs - I just had broccoli on hand. This sauce does have a bit of heat, but it's full of flavor. Enjoy!

NOTE: For the broccoli, I just tossed that with some olive oil and table blend seasoning and roasted at 400 degrees for about 10-15 minutes before broiling the salmon.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tsp adobo sauce (from chipotle chilies)
1 chipotle chile, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/2 tsp ground cumin
4 pieces skinless, boneless salmon

Directions:
Arrange oven rack 4-6 inches from the broiler.  Preheat broiler on high. Spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray or olive oil. Meanwhile, mix the orange juice, adobo sauce, chipotle chili, garlic, and cumin in a mini food processor or blender. Season the salmon fillets with some salt and brush them with the sauce. Broil for 5-7 minutes, or until opaque throughout.
