THE BEST BAKED SALMON



The Best Baked Salmon image

This simple baked salmon really hits all the right notes: tangy, sweet, savory, a little spicy and crunchy. Cooking a larger piece makes for a nice presentation. Topped with buttery golden breadcrumbs and parsley, it's perfect for a weeknight dinner yet fancy enough to serve to guests.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup parsley leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 pounds skin-on salmon fillet, preferably center-cut
1 tablespoon Dijon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl. Mix the panko with the parsley, butter, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper in another small bowl.
  • Place the salmon skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet and spread the surface with the Dijon. Press the brown sugar mixture all over the salmon then top with the breadcrumb mixture. Crimp all four sides of the foil to create a border around the salmon, this will help collect the juices so they don't spread and burn. Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden brown, and the salmon is firm and flakes easily when pressed, 15 to 18 minutes. Cut into four equal portions for serving.

OVEN-ROASTED SALMON, QUINOA AND ASPARAGUS WITH WASABI OIL



Oven-Roasted Salmon, Quinoa and Asparagus With Wasabi Oil image

Seasoned oils like the wasabi oil I buy at my local specialty grocery can embellish a simply cooked piece of fish, a bowl of grains or steamed vegetables. Here the salmon is cooked in the oven, and the wasabi seasoned oil (mine is canola oil-based) is drizzled on just before serving. It's served with quinoa, which you can also dress with the oil, and vegetables in season.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets
Coarse sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3 cups cooked quinoa
1 pound asparagus or any other green vegetable
4 teaspoons wasabi oil (available at gourmet markets) (more to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with foil and lightly oil the foil. Place the salmon on top, skin side down. Season with coarse salt and pepper. Fill a roasting or baking pan with boiling water and place it on the oven floor.
  • Place the salmon in the oven and bake until the fish flakes and white bubbles of protein appear on the surface, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the fillets. Remove from the heat.
  • Meanwhile, snap off the woody ends of the asparagus and steam for 5 minutes, until tender. Remove from the heat.
  • Place a serving of quinoa on each plate, or place a mound of it on a platter. Top with the salmon fillets and arrange the asparagus on the side. Drizzle about a teaspoon wasabi oil over the fish and the asparagus, and serve.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Asparagus, Lemon and Brown Butter image

Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and pepper
1 pound asparagus, tough stems trimmed, stalks sliced 1/4-inch-thick on a slight bias (leave tips whole)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
2 tablespoons drained capers
1/2 cup thawed frozen peas
1/4 cup coarsely chopped parsley, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Rub salmon all over with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange skin side-down on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until medium, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • While the salmon roasts, prepare the asparagus: In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add asparagus, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer asparagus to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add butter to skillet. Cook, stirring, until foam subsides and butter is deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. (Be careful not to burn). Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice, capers, peas, parsley and cooked asparagus. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide vegetables among plates. Top with salmon and spoon over any remaining pan sauce. Garnish with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

SALMON WITH AGRODOLCE BLUEBERRIES



Salmon With Agrodolce Blueberries image

Here, I paired fillets with a seasonal treat: fresh local blueberries. The berries would have been cloying with the fish by themselves, so I simmered them with white wine and vinegar, creating a sweet-and-sour sauce inspired by Italian agrodolce. The bracing blueberry agrodolce would have worked wonderfully on other fish, especially oily ones like mackerel and swordfish. I could also see spooning it over boneless chicken thighs before roasting, or pairing it with meaty pork tenderloin or chops that have just come off the grill in all their smoky glory.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 (8-ounce) fillets wild king salmon
Sea salt, as needed
Vegetable oil for baking sheet
2 shallots, peeled and very thinly sliced
1 and a half cups white wine
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
4 springs fresh thyme
2 cinnamon sticks, broken in half
1 and a third cups blueberries
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons honey
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Run your fingers over the salmon flesh and pull out any pinbones. Season fish generously with salt and let rest at room temperature while you prepare the sauce.
  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Oil a large baking sheet.
  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, simmer together shallots, wine, vinegar, thyme, cinnamon and a pinch of salt until most of the liquid has evaporated, 15 to 20 minutes. Toss in blueberries, butter and honey; cook until berries soften and turn the sauce pink, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Place salmon on baking sheet. Spoon berry mixture over salmon and season with pepper. Bake until salmon is cooked to desired doneness, 8 to 10 minutes for medium-rare.

BAKED SALMON WITH COCONUT-TOMATO SAUCE



Baked Salmon With Coconut-Tomato Sauce image

In 2008, The New York Times asked the chef Eric Ripert of the celebrated restaurant Le Bernardin to dream up a meal that leaned heavily on products from a Jack's 99-Cent Store. Mr. Ripert tackled the assignment with ingenuity and aplomb, creating dishes like this baked salmon with creamy jasmine rice and a tomato sauce, which uses canned coconut milk in both the rice and sauce.

Provided by Pete Wells

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 teaspoons canola oil
1 tablespoon finely diced garlic
2 tablespoons finely diced onion
1/2 cup canned tomato sauce
1/2 cup coconut milk
Salt and ground black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup jasmine rice
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup coconut milk
Salt and ground white pepper
2 tablespoons butter
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
Salt and ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Make the coconut-tomato sauce: In a saucepan, heat oil and add garlic and onion. Sauté until soft, about 3 minutes. Add tomato sauce, coconut milk and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm.
  • Make the creamy jasmine rice: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups water and the butter. Bring to a boil, add rice, and reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered for 12 minutes. Remove pan from heat, cover snugly with foil, and allow to sit for another 12 minutes.
  • Combine milk and coconut milk in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Stir into cooked rice, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
  • Make the salmon: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place butter in roasting pan large enough to fit salmon fillets, and add 1/4 inch water. Place over medium heat to bring to a boil, then add salmon and cover pan snugly with foil. Place in oven and cook as desired, about 5 minutes for medium-rare. Remove fish from pan and drain on paper towels.
  • To serve, reheat sauce. Place an equal portion of rice in center of each of four plates. Top each with a fillet, and pour sauce around rice and salmon. Serve hot.

SALMON WITH LIME HERB BUTTER



Salmon With Lime Herb Butter image

Reader's Digest, as homey as it gets, took me by surprise with an international lineup of recipes in its "30 Minute Cookbook." I gave its recipe for salmon with lime-herb butter a try, partly because keeping compound butters in the refrigerator is a terrific time saver.

Provided by William Grimes

Categories     easy, quick

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 limes
1/4 pound (1 stick) butter
1 2-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
12 sprigs fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
4 6-ounce salmon fillets

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Finely grate zest from one lime, and squeeze its juice; set aside. Cut remaining lime into 8 wedges; set aside.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine butter, ginger, 8 sprigs cilantro and lime zest and juice. Process until the mixture is smooth. Season to taste with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper; process again. Mound butter on a piece of foil, and shape into a cylinder. Cover tightly with foil, and place in freezer.
  • Brush a baking sheet with oil, and place salmon fillets skin side down on sheet. Sprinkle with salt to taste. Bake until fish flakes easily, about 8 minutes.
  • To serve, remove lime butter from freezer, and cut into thick rounds. Place a fillet on each of four plates and top each with an equal portion of lime butter. Garnish each plate with two lime wedges and a sprig of cilantro, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest ingredients possible. This will ensure that your dish is packed with flavor and nutrients.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. This will prevent the salmon from cooking evenly.
  • Roast the salmon at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to keep the fish moist and flaky.
  • Make sure the quinoa is cooked through before adding it to the salad. You don't want the quinoa to be crunchy.
  • Use a light hand with the wasabi oil. A little goes a long way.

Conclusion:

This oven-roasted salmon, quinoa, and asparagus salad with wasabi oil is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked to perfection, the quinoa is fluffy and flavorful, and the asparagus is tender and crisp. The wasabi oil adds a nice touch of heat and spice. This salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
