The Calabrian chili is a versatile Italian pepper with a rich red color, fruity flavor and a nice level of heat for spicy food lovers. They are native to Calabria, Italy, and are one of the most popular peppers in Southern Italy. This Salmon with Calabrian Chili Sauce & Honey is very simple to make and the spicy/sweet sauce really works well with the fatty salmon.
