Categories     main-dish

Time 21m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 (8-ounce) salmon fillets
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Coat each salmon fillet with the olive oil (just enough to make it shine, not drip) and salt and pepper.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat and place the salmon skin side up, (even if the skin has been removed) this is VERY important. Then close the lid and allow to cook about 5 to 7 minutes. Check the grill to make sure there are no flame flare-ups and the salmon is cooking evenly, and let cook another 3 to 4 minutes. You are going to let the fish cook about 90 percent on this side. After about 8 to 9 minutes the salmon should turn over easily and allow to finish another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from grill and serve with your favorite side dishes. The entire cooking time should be about 10 to 12 minutes.

SHEET-PAN SALMON AND BROCCOLI WITH SESAME AND GINGER



Sheet-Pan Salmon and Broccoli With Sesame and Ginger image

A healthy sheet-pan dinner that comes together in just 20 minutes? Sign us up. Brushing a simple sesame-ginger glaze onto the salmon before it roasts promotes caramelization on the fish, a feat not easily accomplished when roasting salmon fillets. The garnishes give this dinner a professional finish: A squeeze of lime juice, a sprinkle of sesame seeds, and a handful of thinly sliced scallions make for a beautiful plate.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated (about 1 tablespoon)
1 garlic clove, finely grated
1 pound broccoli, trimmed and cut into florets, thick stems discarded
2 scallions, trimmed and cut diagonally into 1 1/2-inch segments, plus thinly sliced scallions for garnish
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for brushing the salmon
Kosher salt and black pepper
4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
1/2 lime, for serving
Sesame seeds, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk 3 tablespoons sesame oil with the soy sauce, vinegar, honey, ginger and garlic until smooth. Set the glaze aside.
  • Place the broccoli florets and 1 1/2-inch scallion segments on a sheet pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, toss well and roast for 5 minutes.
  • While the broccoli and scallions roast, place the salmon fillets on a plate and pat dry with paper towels. Brush all over with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Toss the broccoli and scallions and move to the edges of the pan, clearing spaces in the center for the salmon fillets. Place the salmon fillets, evenly spaced, on the center of the pan. Brush the fillets generously with the glaze.
  • Return the pan to the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through but still slightly rare in the center, about 12 minutes.
  • Squeeze the lime over the broccoli and sprinkle with salt. Scatter the sliced scallions and sesame seeds over the salmon, and serve hot.

BROWN-BUTTER SALMON WITH SCALLIONS AND LEMON



Brown-Butter Salmon With Scallions and Lemon image

This dish is a celebration of soft food and subtle flavors. To prevent overcooking, the salmon bakes in a light yet comforting sauce that's made with just three simple ingredients: butter, scallions and lemon peel. The salmon comes out silky, and the sauce is nutty from the browned butter and slightly sweet from the roasted scallions and lemon peel. Serve with a squeeze of lemon for freshness and a simple side like broccolini, green beans, grains or pasta. This technique also works for other fish like cod, halibut or arctic char.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds salmon, skinless or skin-on (1 large fillet or four 6-ounce fillets)
Salt and black pepper
1 lemon
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Pat salmon dry, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Using a vegetable peeler, peel the zest of the lemon in wide strips. Cut the lemon into wedges for serving.
  • In a large, ovenproof skillet, melt the butter over medium. When it's foaming, add the scallions and the lemon peel, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns brown and smells nutty, 3 to 6 minutes. (If you're using a light-colored pan, you'll see the browned bits in the skillet. If you're using a dark-colored pan, look for dark spots on the white parts of the scallions; those are browned bits of butter and a sign to remove the skillet from heat.)
  • Immediately remove from heat, and add ⅓ cup of water. Stir to combine. Lay the salmon, skin side down (if there's skin), into the sauce. Cover the skillet and bake until cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes, or slightly longer if you're cooking a single, large piece. (You'll know the salmon is done when the fish flakes or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120 degrees.)
  • Eat the salmon with a spoonful of sauce and a squeeze of the lemon.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a piece of salmon that is about 1 inch thick and has a vibrant orange color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a dull color, as these may be less flavorful.
  • Cook the salmon skin-side down: This will help to keep the salmon moist and flavorful. If you are using a nonstick skillet, you may not need to add any oil.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it just until it is cooked through. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the doneness of the salmon: The internal temperature of the salmon should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit when it is cooked through.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can garnish it with fresh herbs, lemon wedges, or a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

Broiled salmon with scallions and sesame is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the scallions and sesame add a nice pop of flavor. This dish is also very healthy, as salmon is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids.
