ingredients
1 pound fresh salmon
For the rub
1 teaspoon ancho chile powder (or to taste)
2 tablespoons lime zest, minced
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon brown sugar
salt
black pepper, to taste
For the sauce
2 cups heavy cream

directions
For the rub: Place all rub ingredients in a food processor. Pulse until thoroughly blended. Place in a small bowl.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
For the sauce: In a small sauce pan, heat the garlic and chilies in olive oil. Add the heavy cream and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
For the fish: Gently rub the spice mixture on the salmon and cut into desired fillet sizes. In a saute pan, heat some olive oil and sear both sides of the fillet, about 1 minute per side. Place on a baking sheet and bake in oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until done.
To serve: Place cooked fillets on a plate, and pour the sauce over the fish.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

Great recipe! We let the sauce simmer longer to thicken a bit more. You can modify the amount of chipotle in the sauce if you wish (or add it to taste)
