Betty Crocker's Diabetes Cookbook offers a simple, light and delicious skillet fish dinner recipe.
Ingredients:
  • 1 lemon
  • 4 cups water
  • 6 thin slices gingerroot
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1 salmon fillet (1 lb), cut into 4 pieces
  • 2 navel oranges, peeled, finely chopped
  • 1 lime, peeled, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon grated gingerroot
  • 1 teaspoon olive or canola oil
Instructions:
  • Grate the peel from one lemon to make 2 teaspoons; reserve for salsa. Slice the lemon. In a 10- or 12-inch skillet, bring lemon slices, water, sliced gingerroot, salt, and pepper to a boil. Simmer for 3 minutes over medium-low heat.
  • Place the salmon in the skillet skin side down and cover. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Gently remove the salmon using a slotted spoon and refrigerate it for at least 2 hours, but no more than 24 hours. Discard the liquid in the skillet.
  • Combine oranges, lime, bell pepper, chives, honey, grated gingerroot, oil, and 2 teaspoons of reserved lemon peel in a medium nonmetal bowl.
  • To plate, gently peel off the skin from the salmon and place it on a serving dish. Spoon the salsa over the salmon using a slotted spoon.
