Best 5 Salmon With Brazilian Rub Recipes

BAKED LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with foil.
• In a small bowl, combine all the peppers and salt. Then, rub the salmon on both sides and place it on the lined baking sheet and set aside while you take care of the next steps.
• Position a rack in the middle of your oven, and preheat it to 375F.
• While your oven is heating up, add the butter and the garlic to a small microwave safe bowl, and microwave for 10-20 seconds - just enough to melt the butter.
• Then, add in the honey, half of the chopped cilantro, the lime juice and the zest to the melted butter mixture, and whisk to combine.
• Using a small culinary brush, brush the salmon on both sides. Then, roll or fold the sides of the foil around the salmon (like a little boat) and pour any remaining honey butter mixture on top. The foil boat will ensure all that sauce stays under/around the salmon while it bakes.
• Bake until cooked through (about 15-20 mins) depending on how thick your fish is and how "done" you like your salmon.
• Serve with the remaining chopped cilantro and lime slices!

EASY BRAZILIAN SPICED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Mix olive oil, brown sugar, garlic, smoked paprika, paprika, and chile powder together in a bowl. Spread mixture over salmon fillets. Squeeze lemon juice on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 13 to 15 minutes.

SALMON WITH SWEET AND SPICY RUB

Steps:

• Coat your grill or a grill pan with cooking spray and preheat over medium heat. While the grill is heating, combine the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Brush each salmon fillet with 1/2 teaspoon of the oil, then rub each fillet with about 1/2 tablespoon of the spice mixture.
• Grill the salmon, flesh side down, until charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook another 5 to 6 minutes for medium doneness. For well done fish, cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a platter and serve immediately.

Grill, covered, over high heat or broil 3-4 in. from heat 5 minutes. Turn; grill 4-6 minutes longer or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork.

SALMON WITH BRAZILIAN RUB

Steps:

• In a shallow dish large enough to hold the salmon, combine the juices, salt and pepper.
• Add the salmon, turning to coat with the marinade.
• Let marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes, turning the fillets once.
• Preheat the oven to 425F.
• Line a shallow baking pan with aluminum foil and grease with a little of the melted butter.
• In a small dish, combine the orange zest, brown sugar, chili powder and minced garlic.
• Rub the marinated salmon with the brown sugar mixture.
• Place in the pan and drizzle with the remaining melted butter.
• Bake for 8 to 12 minutes.
• The big challenge here is not overcooking the fillets- 8 minutes will do for thin fillets (less than 1 inch) and no more than 12 minutes for the thicker fillets.
