Sesame Roasted Salmon Recipes

SESAME CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Take salmon out of fridge 20 minutes before cooking.
• Preheat oven to 220C/430F (standard) or 200C/390F (fan). Place shelf about 20cm/8" from the broiler heat source at the top of the oven.
• Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper.
• Place sesame in shallow dish. Press salmon into sesame seeds to coat on all sides. Place on tray.
• Drizzle top with oil.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Flick to broiler on high - broil / grill for 3 minutes until the top is a bit golden (or bake for 5 minutes, but won't be as golden). (Note 5)
• Remove from oven, rest 3 minutes. Serve with soba and greens, garnished with scallions (optional) and drizzled with Dressing.

SESAME SALMON

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sherry, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, and red pepper flakes.
• Place salmon in a glass baking dish and pour soy sauce mixture over salmon. Cover, and chill for at least 2 hours, turning once halfway through.
• Once salmon has chilled, place on a heated broiler pan and broil 4" from the heat (or can use the grill) for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through.
• Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onion just before serving.

SESAME-ROASTED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Combine garlic, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and honey in a bowl. Place salmon, skin-side down, onto the prepared baking sheet. Prick salmon several times with a fork. Spread garlic mixture over salmon; top with sesame seeds.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 20 minutes.

ROASTED SALMON WITH TOASTED SESAME SLAW

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange salmon on a rimmed baking sheet. Rub with 1 tablespoon of the oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until opaque and medium throughout, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small skillet, toast the sesame seeds over low heat, stirring, until golden, about 3 to 4 minutes; scrape into a large bowl. Add sesame oil, scallions, ginger, lemon juice, mayonnaise, garlic and remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine. Reserve 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette in a small bowl.
• To the large bowl, add bean sprouts, cabbage, carrots and chickpeas, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Spoon reserved vinaigrette over the salmon and serve with the slaw.

SESAME-CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Mix the sesame seeds and red pepper flakes on a plate, then press the salmon fillets into the mixture to coat.
• Heat half the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the salmon, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
• Heat the remaining oil in the skillet over high heat, add the vegetables, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until just cooked. Drizzle the soy sauce over the vegetables and serve with the salmon and basmati rice.

SESAME GINGER SALMON

Steps:

• To make the glaze, whisk together honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, Sriracha, ginger and sesame seeds in a small bowl; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds and green onions. In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine ginger marinade and salmon filets; marinate for at least 30 minutes to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick spray. Place salmon filets along with the marinade onto prepared baking dish and bake until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Serve salmon immediately with honey ginger glaze.

GLAZED SESAME SALMON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. In a shallow dish, mix together the chilli sauce, soy, sesame oil, rice wine, garlic and ginger. Lay the pieces of salmon in the marinade, skin-side up, and set aside for 15 mins.
• Put the marinated salmon on a baking tray, skin-side down, and spoon over a little of the leftover marinade. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and roast in the oven for 15 mins, or until done to your liking. Serve with steamed rice and stir-fried vegetables.

SESAME ROASTED SALMON SKEWERS

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients without salmon and sesame seeds.
• Skewer the salmon cubes on skewers.
• Put the skewers in the marinade and let marinate in the fridge for 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Remove the skewers from the marinade (keep it), then roll in the sesame seeds.
• Cook in oven 12 to 15 minutes. While the salmon is cooking, boil the marinade for a few minutes.
• When ready to serve, you can serve the skewers with the remaining marinade as sauce.

EASY MAPLE SESAME SALMON

Steps:

• Place the salmon fillets in a baking dish, sealable container, or zipped-top bag. Whisk the maple syrup, soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic together in a medium bowl. Pour over the salmon fillets, coating them thoroughly. Cover the dish/seal the container or bag. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or up to 8-9 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375°F (191°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, parchment paper, or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
• Line the marinated salmon fillets on the baking sheet and top each with sesame seeds. Hold onto the used marinade-see step 4. Bake the salmon for 15-20 minutes depending on thickness, about 10 minutes per 1-inch inch thickness measured from the thickest part of the fillet or until the thickest part reaches 145°F (63°C) internal heat. If desired (for crispier edges), broil the salmon on high for the last 3 minutes.
• Pour the used marinade into a small saucepan or skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Remove cooked salmon from the oven. Garnish with chopped scallion and serve with thickened maple glaze.

SESAME GINGER BAKED SALMON IN FOIL

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375ºF. Tear three pieces of foil that are slightly larger than the baking sheet, large enough to wrap the salmon in. Place one piece of foil on the baking sheet, followed by the second one going the other way (like a cross) and the last one going the same direction as the first. This will ensure none of the sauce leaks out.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the oil and add the ginger and garlic and allow to sizzle for just 30 seconds, add the rice vinegar and soy sauce and allow the them to reduce for 30 seconds to a minute. Stir in the honey and remove from heat. Add the sesame oil and red pepper flakes.
• Place the salmon filet in the prepared foil, using a brush or spoon, brush the salmon with the sesame ginger sauce. Any remaining sauce can be poured around the salmon. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds. Wrap the foil so all sides are properly closed so the sauce does not leak.
• Bake salmon for 12-14 minutes or until firm (see note). Open the foil, spoon the sauce surrounding the salmon onto the fish, place under the broiler on for the 1-3 minutes, keeping an eye on the salmon so it does not burn. Remove from the oven, if your sauce is a little liquidy, allow the fish to rest for just 5 minutes. This will allow the sauce to thicken a bit. Serve with sliced scallions garnished on top.

SLOW ROASTED SESAME SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Brush the salmon steaks lightly with some of the oil. Combine the two types of sesame seeds in a flat dish or pan and dredge the flesh side (not the skin side) in the sesame seeds and set aside. Combine the shallots, ginger, chili oil, sherry, broth and soy sauce in an oven-proof dish.
• Season the steaks with salt and pepper.
• Heat a saute pan over medium heat with the remaining canola oil and sear the salmon steaks on both sides to a golden brown, taking care not to burn the sesame seeds. Place the seared fish, sesame seeds up, on the seasoned shallots in the baking dish and put the salmon in the oven. Roast for 7 to 8 minutes for medium rare, or until the fish is cooked to your preference.
• Serve the roast salmon immediately with additional soy sauce, pickled ginger and chili sauce on the side.

HONEY GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix honey, green onions, soy sauce, butter, orange juice and spices in small bowl until well blended. Stir in crushed red pepper to taste, if desired. Place salmon in foil-lined 13x9-inch baking pan. Spoon honey mixture evenly over salmon.
• Roast salmon 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork, basting occasionally with honey mixture.

BROILED SALMON WITH SCALLIONS AND SESAME

Steps:

• Whisk garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, honey, 1 Tbsp. oil, and 1/2 tsp. sesame seeds in a small bowl. Season salmon fillets with salt and place in a resealable plastic bag; add half of marinade. Seal bag, pressing out air, and let salmon sit 30 minutes. Reserve remaining marinade.
• Preheat broiler. Toss scallions with remaining 2 tsp. oil on sizzle platter; broil until lightly charred, about 3 minutes. Remove salmon from marinade and set on top of scallions. Spoon some reserved marinade over and broil until salmon is charred around edges, about 6 minutes (watch closely to keep from burning). Spoon more marinade over; top with chile. Broil until salmon is charred and medium-rare at thickest part, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with more sesame seeds.
