SPICE-RUBBED ROASTED SALMON WITH LEMON-GARLIC SPINACH
From Cooking Light December 2007. Don't let the mix of spices fool you, this one is a keeper. The smell and flavor is amazing. Definitely a restaurant quality dish. The spinach... I just found a new favorite way to prepare fresh cooked spinach. I hope you enjoy as much as I did! Served with garlic mashed potatoes. Note: I forgot to add the fresh cilantro; looking forward to making this again and tasting it with the cilantro garnish.

Turning a whole side of fish on the grill is easier if you use a fish-shaped grilling basket. Fire Roasted Vidalia Onion Halves make an ideal dinner accompaniment during the late spring and summer for this salmon.

Steps:
- Combine all seeds in a skillet over medium heat; toast, shaking pan, until aromatic, 4 to 6 minutes. Grind seeds coarsely in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle. Transfer to a bowl; add salt, pepper, and sugar.
- Rub spice mixture into flesh side of salmon. Let stand 30 minutes; if not grilling right away, refrigerate, wrapped in plastic, for up to 2 days. Let salmon come to room temperature before grilling.
- Heat grill to hot; coals should be glowing red, and rack should be very hot. Brush both sides of salmon and hot rack with oil. Grill salmon (if using a gas grill, close lid while cooking), flesh side down, until firm and slightly charred, 4 to 8 minutes. Carefully turn salmon using 2 large spatulas. Cook 4 to 6 minutes more, or until mostly opaque but slightly translucent and cooked through. Serve with cucumber salsa.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pierce the sweet potatoes a few times each and microwave on high for 5 mins until soft (alternatively, bake for 35-40 mins). Keep warm until ready to serve.
- Heat half the oil in a frying pan and lightly brown the salmon on both sides - don't worry about it being cooked through at this point. Transfer the salmon to a plate, wipe out the pan and heat the remaining oil. Cook the garlic for 30 seconds, without letting it brown, then add the spinach, lemon zest and juice and some seasoning. Stir in the mascarpone and 2 tbsp of the milk and cook until the spinach has wilted.
- Tip the spinach mix into an ovenproof dish and top with the lemon slices and salmon fillets. Bake for 5-8 mins until the salmon is cooked through.
- Meanwhile, scoop the sweet potato flesh from the skins and mash with the remaining milk and some seasoning. Serve the sweet potato mash alongside the salmon and creamy spinach.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality salmon: Look for wild-caught, sustainably sourced salmon for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure the spice rub is evenly distributed: Rub the spice mixture all over the salmon, making sure to get into all the nooks and crannies.
- Roast the salmon at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy outer layer and a moist, tender interior.
- 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 10 minutes per inch of thickness.
- Serve the salmon immediately: Roasted salmon is best served hot out of the oven. Pair it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
Conclusion:
This spice-rubbed roasted salmon with lemon-garlic spinach is a delicious and healthy meal that is easy to make. The spice rub gives the salmon a flavorful crust, while the lemon-garlic spinach adds a bright and tangy flavor. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
