Orange & Pomegranate-Glazed Salmon

The key to this dish is to glaze your salmon fillets before you grill them on your grill pan, and then to glaze them as they cook as well. That way, they get a gorgeous crust and intense flavor from the marinade itself.  For the marinade I combined fresh orange juice, pomegranate molasses, a touch of agave nectar, and tangy Dijon mustard.  Simply whisked together and then brushed on your salmon filets that have been seasoned with a touch of salt and pepper. Truly a lovely glaze that is a touch sweet and tangy, with that smoky grilled taste that we all love.
