Categories main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon canola oil
Four 4- to 6-ounce salmon fillets, skin removed, at room temperature
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup apple cider
2 teaspoons minced shallots
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
1/4 cup creme fraiche
Apple cider vinegar, as needed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1/2 small jalapeño, thinly sliced

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack.
In a medium saute pan, heat the butter and canola oil over medium heat. Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides and cook on one side until light golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fillets, then add the apple cider and shallots and raise the heat to medium high to bring the liquid to a simmer. Cook the fish another 2 minutes, then gently remove the fillets to the rack and transfer to the oven. Bake 8 to 10 minutes for medium rare.
Meanwhile, continue simmering the pan sauce over medium-low heat, whisking often, until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the honey and mustard and continue to simmer until slightly reduced, 2 to 4 minutes more. Whisk in the creme fraiche and simmer, whisking often, until the sauce is thick and glossy and coats the back of a spoon, 3 to 5 minutes more. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding apple cider vinegar as desired.
Transfer the salmon to serving plates and spoon the sauce over the fish. Garnish with the tarragon, mint, chives and jalapeños.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 cup apple cider
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon rosemary
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon pepper
1 small red onions or 1 small shallot, sliced thinly
1 lb salmon fillet

Steps:

Mix marinade ingredients in 9 x13 glass pyrex pan and place salmon filet skin side up to coat meat. Marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Flip filet so that skin is on bottom and bake uncovered in marinade for 20 minutes at 375 or until cooked thoroughly.
Hint: You can throw a few small redskins, sliced sweet potato, green beans, asparagus, or other veggies in pan along with fish to soak up some of the delish marinade and cook together. Baking time may increase 5-10 minutes.
Fish may be grilled, but increase marinade time to 1 hour since marinade will be discarded.

Categories Very Low Carbs

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

2 salmon fillets
1/4 cup fresh parsley, coarsely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup butter, melted or 1/4 cup olive oil
1 tomatoes, chopped in small pieces

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Mix all ingredients, except salmon, together.
Pour a small amount of the mix into the bottom of a baking pan - just enough to lightly cover the bottom.
Add the salmon, and pour the remaining mix over top.
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Tips:

Choose the right salmon: Opt for wild-caught salmon if possible, as it tends to have a better flavor and texture than farmed salmon.
Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and sage, will add a burst of flavor to the salmon.
Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure the salmon pieces have enough space in the pan so that they can cook evenly.
Cook the salmon over medium heat: This will help to prevent the salmon from overcooking and drying out.
Baste the salmon with the cider mixture: This will help to keep the salmon moist and flavorful.
Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Autumn Cider Herbed Salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked in a flavorful cider mixture that infuses it with a sweet and tangy flavor. The herbs add a touch of freshness and complexity to the dish. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
