Swiss Chard-Wrapped Salmon with Chunky Orange-Chipotle Salsa
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 small orange
- 1 chipotle in adobo sauce (from a can), finely chopped (seeds removed, if desired)
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided
- 2 (4.0-ounce) boneless, skinless salmon fillets
- 2 large Swiss chard leaves, trimmed
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Oil the bottom of a baking dish with 1/2 teaspoon oil; set aside.
Zest orange and transfer zest to a small bowl. Peel orange and roughly chop, discarding seeds.
Add to bowl with zest along with chipotle, 1/2 teaspoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper.
Toss gently and set aside.
Brush salmon all over with remaining 1 teaspoon oil; season with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Using a fork, mash the rib of each chard leaf to make it more pliable.
Arrange each salmon fillet on one of the chard leaves and spoon half the salsa over each.
Wrap salmon and salsa in chard leaves, folding in the leaf ends to make 2 packages.
