Apricot Miso Salmon Recipes

EASY BAKED STICKY APRICOT SALMON

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 220ºC/430ºF.
• Combine all the glaze ingredients and bring to a simmer in a small saucepan. Allow to cook for a few minutes until the glaze has thickened and coats the back of a spoon easily. Adjust seasoning (add more soy or lemon juice if necessary) and allow to cool slightly.
• Line a baking tray with foil and grease with a little oil/cooking spray. Place the salmon fillets on the tray, skin-side down. Pour over the glaze and place in the oven.
• Allow to bake for 7-10 minutes, spooning the glaze over the salmon every 2-3 minutes, until the salmon is cooked to your preference, and is glossy and sticky.
• Remove from the oven and allow to rest for a few minutes before serving with sides of your choice.

MISO SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Fill a large skillet with about 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Poach fish just until cooked on the outside, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer fillets to a broiler pan.
• In a small bowl, stir together the miso paste, sake, brown sugar, sesame seeds, sesame oil, water, salad dressing and rice vinegar. Spread this over the tops of the salmon fillets.
• Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until almost cooked through. Switch the oven to broil, and broil until the top is browned and bubbly, about 5 more minutes. Cut fillets into portions to serve.

APRICOT DIJON GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Place the salmon on a baking dish, brush with the mixture of the apricot preserves, mustards, soy sauce, lime juice, ginger and garlic and bake in a preheated 400F/200C oven until the salmon just starts to flake easily, about 10 minutes.

EASY APRICOT-GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Mix apricot preserves with mustard.
• Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush 1/2 of the apricot mixture over top.
• Bake on the top rack of the preheated oven for 16 minutes. Pull from the oven and brush with remaining apricot mixture. Cook until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 2 more minutes.

APRICOT-MISO SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Mix the apricot jam, miso, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger to form a paste. Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil, and place a second sheet of foil loosely on top of the first. spread a small amount of olive oil, and two or three tablespoons of the apricot mixture onto the second sheet of foil. Place the salmon skin side down on top. Take approx. half of the apricot mixture and spread on top of the fillet, wrapping the fillet in foil when done. Repeat with the second fillet, and remainder of the apricot mixture. Make sure you have a layer of foil on your cookie sheet as well as around your salmon, as it is likely that the mixture will leak. Bake until done, about 20-25 min for a fillet of average thickness. Serve with curried rice as whole fillets, or divide and garnish with a slice of orange and some thai basil. The liquid that remains in the foil can be spooned on the fillets as a gravy.
