   4                    Salmon fillet
     1/2  lg            Lemon -- juice of
     1/2  lg            Orange -- juice of
                        Salt and pepper
   1                    Orange -- zest
   2      tb            Brown sugar
   1      tb            Chili powder
   1      cl            Garlic -- minced
   2      tb            Butter -- melted

In a shallow dish large enough to hold the salmon, combine the
juices, salt and pepper. Add the salmon, turning to coat with the
marinade. Let marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes, turning
the fillets once.

Preheat the oven to 425 F. Line a shallow baking pan with aluminum
foil and grease with a little of the melted butter.

In a small dish, combine the orange zest, brown sugar, chili powder
and minced garlic. Rub the marinated salmon with the brown sugar
mixture. Place in the pan and frizzle with the remaining melted
butter. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes.

The big challenge here is not overcooking the fillets - 8 minutes
will do for thick fillets (less than 1") and no more than 12 minutes
for the thicker fillets.
