Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1/2 cup orange juice

- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 cups cooked jasmine rice

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the salmon for 15–20 minutes, or until crispy and cooked through.
- In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, soy sauce, and honey. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
