This recipe is for one per my blog, Sola Gina nella Cucina, but easy to scale up for more. In search of new ways to use Fennel Pollen, I created this recipe; it is yummy and could be called Caramel Salmon! If you do not have fennel pollen, you may substitute Chinese 5 spice powder. Enjoy

• garlic powder
• chipotle pepper seasoning and fennel pollen,
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
