Cilantro Lime Salmon In Foil Food

CILANTRO LIME SALMON IN FOIL RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350° F.
• In a small bowl, combine lime juice, garlic, honey, cilantro, olive oil, and cumin. Stir well and set aside.
• Season salmon filet with salt and pepper to taste and place on a large piece of greased tin foil. Fold up all four sides of the foil slightly to prevent the sauce from spilling onto the counter. Pour the cilantro lime sauce over the salmon.
• Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon covering completely, and seal into a closed packet. Place directly on oven rack and bake until cooked through, about 15-20 minutes.
• Optional step: Open the foil exposing the top of the salmon and broil for the last 4-5 minutes, for a browned top. Top with additional cilantro or lime juice just before serving.

CILANTRO LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a nonstick skillet and place over medium-high heat. Season the salmon on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the fish to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish and the degree of doneness you like. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add the honey, soy, remaining 2 tablespoons butter and half of the lime zest and juice. Cook, stirring, until the butter melts and starts to bubble. Cook for a minute until the sauce thickens a little. Add the salmon and spoon over the sauce. Cook for another minute, basting as you go. Sprinkle generously with the cilantro.
• Stir the remaining lime juice and zest into the cooked rice. Serve the salmon with the rice, extra sauce and lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F.
• Pat dry salmon. Brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil from all sides. Season with salt and pepper. Place the salmon on a large piece of foil. Fold foil sides and ends up (1 or 2 inches high) tightly around the salmon. Place the salmon in foil on a baking sheet.
• In a small bowl, combine honey, lime juice, chopped cilantro, and garlic. Mix to combine. Spread this mixture over the salmon.
• Do not cover salmon with foil, leave it open (with foil sides up) and bake it just like that, at 400 F for 15-20 minutes.
• Carefully remove salmon from foil, separating the salmon from the skin which will remain stuck to the foil. Place the salmon onto a serving plate. Carefully scoop the sauce from around the salmon and pour over the salmon.

CILANTRO LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Combine the olive oil, garlic, lime juice, salt, cayenne pepper, and half of the cilantro in a small bowl. (I used a lot more cilantro but will post as written) Stir to mix well.
• Marinate the salmon with the mixture while he oven is preheating.
• As soon as the oven is preheated, transfer the salmon to a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper, and bake until it's cooked through, about 15 minutes. I didn't use any foil or parchment paper and found it baked just fine in my pan without.
• Remove from the oven, top with the remaining chopped cilantro and garnish with the lime. Serve immediately.
