Amaretto Oriental Salmon Recipes

AMARETTO SALMON

Steps:

• Wash salmon and pat dry.
• Place skin side down on foil lined baking sheet.
• Season with salt and pepper, cover with a thin layer of dijon mustard.
• Sprinkle bread crumbers over salmon.
• Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes depending upon thickness of salmon.
• When it is almost done, turn oven to broil, move salmon up and broil for 5 minutes or until breadcrumbs are golden brown.
• Remove from oven. Salmon should easily release from skin. Place on plates.
• While salmon is broiling, melt butter in a small saucepan.
• Add amaretto.
• Cook for one minute.
• Pour over salmon.
• I usually serve this with herb buttered noodles but it would also be really good with a nice rice pilaf.

ASIAN SALMON

Steps:

• Make several shallow slashes in the skinless side of the salmon fillets. Place fillets skin-side down in a glass baking dish. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, pepper, onion and sesame oil. Pour the liquid over the salmon, cover, and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, water, and dill weed. Cover pan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cook 20 minutes, until rice is tender and water has been absorbed. Allow to stand for 5 minutes before removing lid and fluffing rice with a fork.
• Remove cover from salmon, and bake the fish and the marinade for about 30 minutes, or until fish can be flaked with a fork. Serve salmon over the rice, and pour sauce over.

ORIENTAL SALMON

Steps:

• Skin salmon and cut in small pieces. Poach in water.
• Meanwhile mix the water, ketchup, rice vinegar, sugar and plum sauce.
• Put all the items into a pan, mix with the carrots, cucumber and onion and turn on medium high. Cook until boiling, turn heat down and cook until carrots are soft.
• Add salmon and serve over rice.
