GARLIC BUTTER SALMON RECIPE

Garlic Butter Salmon recipe image

Recipe video above. This is a simple-yet-luxurious, cheffy way to cook salmon. By basting continuously with foaming garlic butter, it seeps into every crack and crevice of the salmon and gives it the ultimate buttery crust.It may seem like a lot of butter for one recipe, but you need it to ensure good basting coverage. You do not have to use all of it for serving. Save leftover butter (even if just a smear!) and pan fry bread with it tomorrow, see post for photos. It's Amazing - with a capital A!

Ingredients

4 salmon fillets ((180g/6oz each), skinless and boneless)
1/2 tsp salt (, cooking / kosher)
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp garlic (~2 cloves) (, finely minced by hand (don't use a garlic press))
90g / 6 tbsp salted butter (, cut into cubes (or unsalted + 1/4 tsp salt))
1 tsp lemon juice (, plus more to taste)
2 tsp parsley (, finely chopped)

Steps:

Season salmon: Take salmon out of fridge 30 minutes prior to cooking. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.
Sear salmon 3 mins: Heat oil in large non stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon, presentation side (ie. curved side) down, and cook for 3 minutes until golden.
Turn, cook 1 min, then add butter: Turn salmon and cook the other side for 1 minute. THEN put the butter in.
Baste 1 1/2 minutes: Once butter is melted and foaming, add garlic and immediately start spooning the bubbling butter continuously over the salmon for 1 1/2 minutes. To do this, tilt the pan slightly so the butter pools on one side. Use a large spoon to scoop the butter up and spoon it over the salmon.
Remove salmon from stove: Check Internal temperature of salmon. It should be 50°C/122°F for medium-rare (optimum juiciness pull temp). Remove salmon to a plate. Rest for 3 minutes - it will rise to 53°C/127°F. (See Note 2 for internal temperatures)
Add lemon juice to butter: Put pan back on unlit stove to keep butter hot. Add lemon juice.
Serve: Place salmon on serving plates. Spoon over butter (be judicious, it's rich!), garnish with a sprinkle of parsley. Pictured in the post with Cauliflower Mash and leafy greens with French Vinaigrette.

AGRODOLCE SALMON

Categories main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

Olive oil, for greasing
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
3 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons paprika
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Four 6- to 8-ounce skinless salmon filets, center cut
1 lemon, juiced
2 cups watercress
1/4 cup sliced natural almonds, toasted
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
2 tablespoons dried currants

Steps:

Arrange the oven racks so that one is in the top third. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly oil.
Combine the red wine vinegar, brown sugar, 2 tablespoons of the honey and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the paprika in a medium saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until simmering, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until reduced and syrupy, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes. Set the sauce aside.
Combine the remaining 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Arrange the salmon in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and season with the paprika mixture. Spoon the sauce over the salmon.
Bake the salmon until it is an opaque light pink and is partially cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the salmon from the oven and set the oven to high broil. Baste the salmon with the sauce pooled on the baking sheet. Return the salmon to the oven and broil until the tops start to brown and caramelize, 3 to 5 minutes depending on your broiler.
While the salmon is cooking, whisk together the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon honey in a large bowl. Add the watercress, almonds, mint and currants to the dressing and toss to coat evenly. Serve the salmon warm with the watercress salad.

Tips:

Use fresh salmon fillets: Fresh salmon fillets will yield the best results. If using frozen salmon, thaw it completely before cooking.
Make sure the salmon is cooked through: The salmon should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the fish.
Don't overcook the salmon: Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is cooked through.
Use a good quality olive oil: A good quality olive oil will help to keep the salmon moist and flavorful.
Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices will add flavor and depth to the salmon. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, oregano, basil, garlic, and lemon.
Let the salmon rest before serving: Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the fish.

Lee's Salmon Baste is a delicious and easy way to cook salmon. It is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the flavors are amazing. If you are looking for a new way to cook salmon, I highly recommend trying this recipe. You won't be disappointed!
