DIRECTIONS

Season tops of salmon with salt, pepper and rosemary.

Use a micro plane or citrus zester to procure 1/2 teaspoon of zest from the outside of the orange just the peel, not the white pith.

Spray a large 12 inch skillet with cooking spray. Add olive oil and orange zest to the pan. Heat over medium heat. Add the salmon, skin side down and cook four to five minutes. Use a spatula to flip the pieces over onto the seasoned side and cook four to five more minutes.
