SALMON WITH LEMON AND DILL

Salmon with Lemon and Dill image

This is a wonderful (and easy) recipe I got from my Aunt. The flavors of lemon and dill really complement the fish. I like to use wild Alaskan salmon for this recipe, but any salmon will work. I usually don't measure, so these are all estimates. Play with the ingredients to suit your own tastes!

ROASTED DILL SALMON

Roasted Dill Salmon image

This oven-roasted salmon is adapted from the cookbook "Bottom of the Pot: Persian Recipes and Stories" (Flatiron, 2018) by Naz Deravian. The dish comes from Ms. Deravian's stepmother, who likes to combine her native Japanese ingredients with Iranian ones like pomegranate molasses. Get a quick pot of rice started as the salmon marinates and you can have dinner prepped in less than 20 minutes. Serve with sheveed polo (Iranian dill rice) and make sure to drizzle plenty of the pan juices over the salmon and rice.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds skin-on, center-cut salmon fillet
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup fresh lime juice or Seville orange juice, plus additional wedges, for serving
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon dried dill or 3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1 large garlic clove, crushed
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/8 teaspoon ground saffron (optional)

Steps:

Heat the oven to 425 degrees with the rack in the center position. Choose a baking sheet or baking dish that fits the salmon snugly (so the juices don't disperse and burn) and line it with parchment paper. Place the salmon skin-side down on the baking sheet and season well with salt and pepper.
Combine the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl and spoon over the salmon. If you have time, flip the salmon and let marinate directly on the baking sheet, flesh-side down, for 15 minutes.
Roast the salmon skin-side down until cooked through to your liking, 9 to 12 minutes. Serve with extra lime or orange wedges, and drizzle the pan juices over the salmon and rice.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

¼ cup pine nuts
½ cup coarsely chopped fresh basil
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pound salmon fillet

Steps:

Heat a small skillet over medium heat; cook and stir pine nuts in the hot skillet until fragrant and toasted, about 5 minutes.
Blend basil, Parmesan cheese, toasted pine nuts, and garlic in a blender until a thick paste forms. Gradually stream olive oil into blender and continue blending until desired consistency of pesto is reached; season with salt and pepper.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Season both sides of salmon with salt and pepper.
Place salmon, skin-side down, onto grill grates; close grill and cook until salmon is about 2/3 done, 8 to 15 minutes. Remove salmon from grill using a spatula and transfer to a baking sheet, skin-side down. Spread pesto evenly over the salmon. Save extra pesto for another use if there are leftovers.
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
Broil salmon until fish flakes easily with a fork and pesto is bubbling, about 5 minutes.

Categories Very Low Carbs

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
5 tablespoons butter, divided
salt and pepper
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
3 teaspoons cream

Steps:

In 12 inch skillet, heat 3 Tbsp butter.
Add filets, skin side down, and saute on low heat for about 10 min turning often.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle with lemon juice and dill.
Remove to serving plate.
Add 2 Tbsp butter, and cream.
Cook and stir 1 minute.
Pour over salmon.
Serve with lemon slices.

Tips:

Choose the freshest salmon fillet you can find. Look for fish that is bright orange in color and has a mild, briny smell. Avoid fish that is dull or has a strong fishy odor.
Use high-quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for sautéing salmon, as it has a delicate flavor that will not overpower the fish.
Season the salmon well. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other spices and herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or chili powder.
Cook the salmon over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
Do not overcrowd the pan. If you are cooking multiple pieces of salmon, make sure to cook them in batches so that they have enough room to cook evenly.
Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served hot, so make sure to have your sides and garnishes ready before you start cooking the fish.

Conclusion:

Sautéed salmon with dill lemon pesto is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked perfectly and the pesto adds a bright and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
