Citrus Roasted Salmon With Herbs Food

HERB AND CITRUS ROASTED SALMON

Steps:

• Begin by drying the salmon filets very well with paper towels. This will help the seasoning stick to the fish better.
• Line your baking sheet or cast iron pan with parchment paper and scatter a few lemon or orange slices on the bottom.
• Season salmon generously with salt and pepper and whisk together the olive oil, zest and juice of 1 lemon and white wine and pour about half of it on top of the salmon.
• Toss together all your freshly chopped herbs and scatter them on top of the salmon filets, gently pressing down lightly so the herbs stick to the fish. Then pour the rest of the olive oil mixture on top and around the salmon.
• Bake the citrus herb crusted salmon at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on it because thicker salmon may take a bit longer and thinner filets, less time.
• Serve salmon with the poaching sauce and spoon over your favorite side dish.

SLOW-ROASTED CITRUS SALMON WITH HERB SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300 degrees. Season salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Place in a large baking dish with sliced lemons, orange and thyme (or rosemary, oregano or marjoram), if using.
• Drizzle everything with olive oil and bake until salmon is just turning opaque at the edges and is nearly cooked through, 25 to 35 minutes.
• Toss fresh herbs with 1 tablespoon lemon juice and flaky salt. Serve alongside salmon.

CITRUSY ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Set a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, clementine or mandarin juice, lime juice, cilantro, shallot and garlic; set aside citrus sauce.
• Scrub the potatoes and slice them into ¼-inch-thick rounds. In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet (or similar oven-safe pan), fan out the potato rounds, overlapping them a little, to cover the surface of the skillet. Season well with salt (about 1 to 1½ teaspoons) and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle on a few red-pepper flakes. Stir the oil and citrus juice mixture to combine again, and spoon half of the sauce over the potatoes. Place the skillet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, until the edges start to turn golden.
• Remove the skillet from the oven, season the salmon well with salt (about 1½ teaspoons) and pepper to taste and place the salmon on top of the potatoes, skin side down. Sprinkle with a few more red-pepper flakes. Spoon the rest of the citrus sauce over the salmon and top the fish with the citrus slices. Place the skillet back in the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through to your liking, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.
