salt, and couple grinds pepper. Spoon out heaping 1/2 teaspoon of this

oil; when hot, set the salmon in the pan, spiced side down, and sear for 3
to 4 minutes.

liking (4 to 5 minutes for medium). Transfer salmon to serving plates and
return the pan to high heat. Add sauteed pepper, orange juice, and reserved
spice mix and cook, stirring a few times, until the juice is reduced to a
syrupy consistency, 3 to 4 minutes, Spoon the pepper strips and juices over
the salmon and serve.
