FOR SALSA:
4 oranges
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1 small fresh jalapeno chile -- seeded and finely
chopped
1/2 small red onion -- thinly sliced
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
FOR SALMON:
8 6-oz pieces salmon fillet with skin -- (3 lb total)
1 cup Chile Glaze -- (see recipe)
2 tablespoons fennel seeds
2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns -- coarsely crushed

Make salsa: Cut peel and any white pith from oranges with a sharp knife, then cut sections free from membranes, letting them drop into a bowl. Stir in remaining salsa ingredients.

Prepare salmon: Preheat broiler.

Season salmon with salt on all sides. Arrange on rack of a broiler
pan, skin sides down, and broil about 4 inches from heat 4 minutes. Spoon glaze on top and spread onto sides, then sprinkle with fennel seeds and cracked pepper. Broil until glaze is bubbly and fish is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Serve salmon with salsa.
