Directions:

Heat a large skillet to medium high, and when it is warm add the butter, marmalade, ginger and flour. Mix the ingredients together thoroughly.

When the butter mixture is bubbling, add the chicken and cook for 3 to 4 minutes stirring constantly to make sure the chicken cooks evenly.

Add the remaining ingredients and let the mixture simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.

If you want to add vegetables, cook them in the microwave for 2 to 3 minutes so they soften, then add them when you add the chicken.

Serve over rice or noodles. Enjoy!

In a large Ziploc bag combine all ingredients except the salmon fillets. Shake the bag vigorously to make sure everything is mixed well. Use your fingers to mix through the bag is need be.

Remove 4 tablespoons of the mixture and place in small skillet.

Cut each salmon fillet in half and place in the Ziploc bag. Press as much air out of the bag as possible and let the salmon marinate for 20 to 30 minutes.

15 minutes before the marinade is finished, preheat the broiler on your oven and begin heating the sauce in the skillet to medium low heat.

Place the salmon fillets on a roasting rack and broil for 8 to 10 minutes or until the salmon is flakey. Flip half way through cooking.

Top the salmon with the sauce from the skillet.
