Made this great variation of baked salmon. The orange citrus relish was the best part. I modified the recipe as it needed a little salt and pepper to taste prior to baking. Hubby really liked it and said it was a keeper. I posted this recipe. Accidentally deleted so bookmark again for Favorite or Try Soon. Sorry
