Orange Honey Glazed Salmon Medallions with Creamy Citrus Sauce! ✨
These juicy salmon medallions are shaped into elegant little roses, brushed with a sweet and savory orange-honey glaze, and roasted with fresh rosemary until beautifully caramelized. The combination of fresh orange juice, soy sauce, honey, and a hint of chili creates a rich, glossy finish, while keeping the salmon wonderfully tender and flaky inside.
