Roast Salmon With Herb Crust And Brown Shrimp Butter Recipes

ROASTED SALMON WITH GREEN HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Place the salmon fillet in a glass, ceramic, or stainless-steel roasting dish and season it generously with salt and pepper. Whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice and drizzle the mixture evenly over the salmon. Let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, stir together the scallions, dill, and parsley. Scatter the herb mixture over the salmon fillet, turning it so that both sides are generously coated with the green herbs. Pour the wine around the fish fillet.
• Roast the salmon for 10 to 12 minutes, until almost cooked in the center at the thickest part. The center will be firm with just a line of uncooked salmon in the very center. (I peek by inserting the tip of a small knife.) Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Cut the salmon crosswise into serving pieces and serve hot with lemon wedges.

ROAST SALMON WITH HERB CRUST AND BROWN SHRIMP BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix the sea salt with the coriander seeds and sprinkle all over the flesh of the salmon. Cover and chill for 1 hour, then rinse well under gently running cold water and pat dry with kitchen paper.
• Put the new potatoes in a large pan of lightly salted cold water and bring to the boil, then simmer for 8-10 minutes or until tender to the point of a knife. Drain well.
• Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Put the parsley, dill, mustard powder, peppercorns, lemon zest and a pinch of salt into a food processor, and whizz until finely chopped. Tip in the capers, breadcrumbs and oil, and pulse until combined.
• Put the salmon, skin-side down, into a large roasting tin with the new potatoes all around, then pack the herby breadcrumbs all over the top of the fish. Dot the butter all over the potatoes and season, then roast in the oven for 25 minutes. Stir the brown shrimp into the potatoes and butter after 20 minutes, for the final 5 minutes of cooking. Remove from the oven, pour over the lemon juice and serve with roasted carrots and greens tossed in more of the buttery juices, if you like.

ROASTED SALMON WITH BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place butter on a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Place sheet in oven until butter melts, about 1 minute.
• Carefully remove sheet from oven and place salmon on top of butter, skin side down; season with salt and pepper. Return sheet to oven.
• Roast until salmon is just cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes, checking frequently. It will flake easily when done. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

ROASTED SALMON WITH MUSTARD-HERB CRUST, ARUGULA MAYONNAISE, AND PUMPERNICKEL TOAST

Steps:

• Make the mustard crust: In a bowl, combine the mustard, lemon juice, fresh herbs, salt and pepper, and stir together. Stir in the olive oil, and then the bread.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the salmon, skin side down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Spoon the bread mixture onto the salmon and smooth with a spatula to cover completely. Put the baking sheet into the oven and roast until the salmon is just cooked through but still translucent in the center, about 10 minutes.
• When the salmon is cooked, take it out of the oven and set aside. Combine the mayonnaise, the chopped arugula, and the lemon juice in a blender and puree. Season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, transfer the salmon to a serving platter by holding 2 opposing corners of the parchment paper and lifting the whole thing off the baking sheet and onto the platter, parchment and all. Spoon the mayonnaise into a serving bowl and garnish with remaining arugula. If serving with cocktail bread set the salmon out with the arugula mayonnaise, and the arugula leaves and let guests make open-faced sandwiches by spreading the toast with the mayonnaise, adding a leaf or 2 of arugula, and finishing with a spoonful of the salmon.

SALMON IN HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Melt the butter and squeeze in lemon juice and add crushed garlic, cilantro and green onions and mix well. Place salmon fillet on a piece of aluminum foil that is large enough to completely wrap and seal the fillet. After placing the salmon on the foil, brush or pour the butter mixture on the salmon. Seal the salmon in foil. Place on the barbecue grill and cook for 10 to 12 minutes per side. Any longer will dry out the salmon. Cut in portions and serve immediately.
• Fish can also be cooked in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.

HERB-ROASTED SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Place salmon in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan, skin side down. Combine remaining ingredients; spread over fillets. Roast to desired doneness, 15-18 minutes.
