Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Blend the tarragon with bread crumbs, salt and pepper, to taste, in a food processor, pulsing in the dill last. Remove and stir in just enough melted butter to create the consistency of wet sand.
- Pat the salmon dry and season on all sides with salt and pepper, to taste. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large saute pan and sear the salmon, flesh side down, over medium- high heat, about 2 minutes. Do not crowd pan. Flip and top each fillet with the herb/crumb mixture. Put the pan in the oven and bake until the fish flakes with a fork. About 8 to 12 minutes. Transfer the fish to a platter and serve immediately.
SALMON IN HERB BUTTER
Steps:
- Melt the butter and squeeze in lemon juice and add crushed garlic, cilantro and green onions and mix well. Place salmon fillet on a piece of aluminum foil that is large enough to completely wrap and seal the fillet. After placing the salmon on the foil, brush or pour the butter mixture on the salmon. Seal the salmon in foil. Place on the barbecue grill and cook for 10 to 12 minutes per side. Any longer will dry out the salmon. Cut in portions and serve immediately.
- Fish can also be cooked in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose a good-quality salmon fillet. Look for one that is firm and has a bright pink color.
- Make sure the salmon is cooked through. The flesh should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
- Don't overcook the salmon. Overcooked salmon is dry and tough.
- Use a variety of herbs in the crust. This will give the salmon a more complex flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different cooking methods. Salmon can be baked, grilled, pan-fried, or roasted.
- Serve the salmon with a variety of sides. Roasted vegetables, rice, and quinoa are all good options.
Conclusion:
Herb-crusted salmon is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It is a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, and it can be prepared in a variety of ways. With a little planning, you can easily create a meal that is both healthy and delicious.
