Provided by Karina

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup honey
4 large cloves garlic (, crushed)
2 limes (, juiced)
2 1/2 pound (1.2 kg) side of salmon
Sea salt (, to taste)
Cracked pepper (, to taste (optional))
Lime slices ((to serve))
1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley (, divided)

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven. Preheat oven to 375°F | 190°C. Line a baking sheet with a large piece of foil, or 2 long pieces of foil over lapping each other lengthways if your salmon is wide.
  • In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low-medium heat. Add the honey, garlic and lime juice, and whisk until the honey has melted through the butter and the mixture is well combined.
  • Place the salmon onto lined baking sheet. Evenly pour the honey-lime mixture over the salmon. Sprinkle with a good amount of salt (about 2 teaspoons), cracked pepper, and 2 tablespoons of parsley. Fold the sides of the foil up beside the salmon to keep the sauce under the fillet.
  • Bake until cooked through (about 15-18 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish and your preference of doneness). Then, change oven setting to broil (or grill) for 2-3 minutes on medium heat to caramelise the top. Garnish with remaining parsley and serve immediately with fresh lime slices.

Provided by Natasha Kravchuk

Categories     Easy

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup unsalted butter ((8 Tbsp))
4 cloves garlic (smashed (NOT PRESSED))
2 Tbsp lime juice ((from 1 lime)plus lime wedges to serve)
2 Tbsp dill (chopped, plus more to garnish)
1 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 lbs salmon filet (skin-on, cut into 6 portions)

Steps:

  • In a sauce pan, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Smash 4 garlic cloves with the flat side of a knife and add to saucepan with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Simmer 1 min or until fragrant. Add chopped dill and 2 Tbsp lime juice then immediately remove from heat.
  • Arrange salmon fillets on a platter skin-side-down and spoon on 1/3 of butter sauce and brush over the tops. Let salmon marinate while preheating grill.
  • Preheat grill to medium heat (350˚F to 400˚F). Oil the hot grates. Place salmon onto preheated grill, skin-side-up. Cover and grill over medium (350˚F) heat undisturbed, about 3 minutes on the first side.
  • Carefully flip salmon over (it helps to have a spatula to loosen it and tongs to flip it over), brush on 1/3 of butter sauce then cover and cook another 2 minutes (or according to salmon grilling chart), until internal temperature reaches 140˚F (the temperature will continue to rise to an ideal 145˚F internal temperature off the grill).
  • Transfer salmon to a platter and drizzle with remaining 1/3 of sauce in saucepan (if butter has hardened, heat on the stovetop just until melted). Garnish with fresh dill and serve with lime wedges to squeeze over salmon.

1.5 lbs wild salmon
olive oil
salt + pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 cloves garlic, (crushed)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup butter, (melted (or olive oil))

(I simply whisked the lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper until combined. I used a frother to blend in the butter).

ROASTED SALMON WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Ginger-Lime Butter image

Wild Pacific salmon is available in spring and summer, and the flavor is phenomenal. It definitely tastes better than farmed salmon and is always a better choice, sustainably speaking. Though it is expensive, think of it as a seasonal treat. Whether you choose wild king salmon, coho or sockeye, take care not to overcook it.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1 1/2 pound) wild salmon fillet, such as king or coho, at room temperature
Salt and pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1 teaspoon lime zest
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 pound baby spinach
Lime wedges, for serving
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, green and white parts

Steps:

  • Lay the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the ginger-lime butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, ginger, lime zest, lemon zest and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir well to combine.
  • Transfer salmon, uncovered, to the oven to cook for about 8 minutes. Check the salmon once or twice as it cooks. Depending on the thickness of the fish, it should be fully cooked when little white juices appear on the surface - moist and yielding with big flakes when probed. It may take 10 minutes for thick fillets.
  • As the salmon cooks, put 2 tablespoons ginger-lime butter in a wide deep skillet or large pot over medium heat. When butter is melted, add spinach and a pinch of salt. Put on the lid and turn heat to medium-high. (You may need to add the spinach in batches.) After 2 minutes, remove lid and stir spinach to help it wilt. When all spinach is wilted, turn off the heat.
  • Transfer salmon to a platter or divide among individual plates. Smear the remaining ginger-lime butter on the fish. Surround with wilted spinach and lime wedges, and top with scallions.

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.

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 limes
1/4 pound (1 stick) butter
1 2-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced

1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons sunflower oil

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon: Look for wild-caught, sustainably sourced salmon. If using farmed salmon, choose one that is raised in a responsible manner.
  • Use fresh herbs: Garlic, lime, and cilantro are all essential ingredients in this recipe. Use fresh herbs whenever possible to get the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Make sure the butter is hot enough: When you add the butter to the pan, make sure it is hot enough to sizzle. This will help to prevent the butter from burning.
  • Serve the salmon immediately: Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. Garnish with additional cilantro and lime wedges for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This salmon with garlic lime butter is a delicious and easy weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor and can be on the table in less than 30 minutes. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
