Garlic Herb Salmon Food

GRILLED SALMON WITH HERB AND MEYER LEMON COMPOUND BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the butter, zest, herbs and garlic. Mix until everything is well mixed. Season, to taste, with salt. If using right away, keep the butter at room temperature. If making ahead, reserve in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature before using.
• Preheat grill to medium.
• Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature. Season with salt and coat with olive oil. Brush and oil the grill. Place the salmon, skin side down, on the clean, preheated grill. After 2 to 3 minutes, rotate the salmon 90 degrees to create cross-hatch grill marks on the salmon skin. Cook the salmon for another 3 to 4 minutes. As the salmon cooks it will turn from translucent orange to opaque pink.
• Turn the salmon over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. If the salmon starts to burn, or the flames flare up move the fish to a cooler part of the grill.* Remove from the grill and top with the room temperature compound butter. The butter should act as a sauce and melt over and coat the grilled salmon.
• What a delish fish!
• *Tip: It is a general rule to cook fish for 8 minutes per inch of thickness. I like salmon cooked to about medium, so I cook mine for a little less.

SALMON WITH HERB & GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Season: Pat salmon dry, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Pan-sear: Heat oil in a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add salmon, presentation side down, and cook for 3 minutes until golden brown.
• Flip: Turn salmon and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 49°C / 120°F (for medium-rare, recommended) or until cooked to your taste (Note 5).
• Butter baste: When it's almost cooked, add the butter. Melt, then spoon over the salmon a few times.
• Rest: Remove salmon onto plate, and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
• Sauté garlic: Add garlic and stir for 20 seconds or until light golden.
• Reduce wine: Add white wine, turn up heat to high. Bring to simmer while stirring base of the pan to dissolve all the golden bits into the sauce. Cook 1 minute or until it most evaporates and the wine-y smell is gone.
• Thicken cream & stock: Add cream and chicken stock, then simmer on medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until reduced and slightly thickened.
• Add parmesan & herbs: Stir through parmesan (this will thicken sauce more), then the herbs. Taste sauce and see if more salt and pepper is needed.
• Serve: Serve salmon with Creamy Sauce, ensuring there's something on the plate to soak up all that amazing sauce! Mashed Potato rates highly. See above video for list of suggestions (including side salads).

BROILED SALMON RECIPE WITH GARLIC HERB BUTTER + VIDEO

Steps:

• Set the oven on broil and move the top rack down about 6 inches from the heat source. Cut the salmon fillet into individual portions. And place on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Brush olive oil over the top of each portion. Then salt and pepper generously.
• Broil for 5-8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon. (It's better to undercook the salmon a little, rather than overcook.)
• Meanwhile, mix the melted butter, lemon juice, parsley, dill, and garlic.
• Once the salmon comes out of the oven, brush the tops with the herb butter, then serve warm.

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.

GARLIC HERB GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Mix all the Marinade ingredients in a bowl, stir to mix well.
• Marinate the salmon with the Marinade for 20 minutes.
• Heat up a gas grill to medium heat, at 350°F (176°C). Remove the marinated salmon from the Marinade and place it on top of the gas grill. Place the salmon, skin side down at a 45 degree angle to form beautiful char marks. Grill the salmon for 4 minutes, uninterrupted. Turn the salmon over and grill for another 4 minutes, uninterrupted. Baste with the remaining Marinade mixture while grilling.
• Depending on the type of salmon cuts you use, you might need to grill it for longer (or shorter) time. The salmon is cooked when white stuff starts to seep out from the inside. If the salmon is not cooked yet but already charred, move the salmon to the indirect heat side of the gas grill. Cover the lid and cook for 1-2 minutes or until the inside is completely cooked through. Remove from the grill and serve immediately with lemon wedges, dill sauce, or sweet chili sauce.

SALMON IN GARLIC HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• For butter, mix all ingredients in a food processor or by hand with a rubber spatula and store covered in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Salt and pepper both sides of salmon.
• Melt butter in non-stick pan. Saute onion and garlic until soft, approximately 3-4 minutes.
• Add salmon steaks to the pan, pushing onions and garlic to the side and around the salmon. Cook salmon approximately 4-5 minutes and then flip.
• Add the lemon juice, squeezing over the salmon as it cooks.
• Cook salmon an additional 4-5 minutes or until it flakes easily. Remove salmon from the pan and keep warm.
• Add another 2-3 Tablespoons of butter to the pan. Allow to melt before adding cream or milk.
• Bring butter/onion/milk mixture to a simmer. Simmer 1 - 2 minutes until slightly thickened. Pour over salmon steaks and serve. Garnish with parsley if desired.

BALANCING LEMON GARLIC HERB CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat broiler on high or oven to 400 degrees.
• Chop garlic, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and mash with the side of a chef's knife until you have a puree. Alternately just finely chop the garlic.
• Melt butter or ghee in a small sauté pan. Remove from the heat.
• Add garlic, lemon juice, parsley, dill, and pepper. Mix to combine.
• Place the salmon fillet on broiling pan or parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Using a spoon, spread the lemon-herb mixture evenly over the top of the fillet.
• Sprinkle with the almond flour.
• Broil on the middle rack for 8-10 minutes, or until salmon is almost cooked through for medium rare. It should still be a little pink in the middle, as it will continue to cook once removed from the oven. If you like salmon more well-done leave it to cook a few more minutes but turn the temperature down to 400 degrees so the top doesn't burn. This method gives you a nice crunchy, caramelized crust.
• Alternately the fish can be baked in a 400-degree oven on the top rack for 10-12 minutes, or until cooked through.

• Pour mixture over salmon (lift fillets to help marinade run under) then cover and let marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes, turning once halfway through.
• Preheat grill to medium-high heat during last 10 minutes of salmon marinating.
• Brush grill grates with oil, spoon some of the herbs onto salmon (or just use your hands to spread them over), remove salmon from marinade and place on grill.
• Grill about 3 - 5 minutes per side to cook through.
• Serve warm garnished with more parsley if desired.

GARLIC HERB SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• Drain the liquid from the salmon.
• Remove the skin, but keep the bones.
• Cut the onions into small chunks and place into a food processor with the minced garlic.
• Process on pulse until the onions are minced.
• (If doing by hand, grate the onions and mix with the garlic in a large mixing bowl.) Add the salmon, eggs, evaporated milk and lemon juice to the onion-garlic mixture in the food processor.
• Process until smooth.
• (If doing by hand, mash the salmon with a potato masher to as fine a texture as possible, and add along with the same ingred- ients as above to the onion-garlic mixture in the bowl, and mix well) Scrape the food processor contents into a large mixing bowl.
• Add the seasoned bread crumbs 1/3 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition.
• You may need more or less than 1 cup of the bread crumbs de- pending on how juicy your salmon, onions or lemons are.
• You want to add enough bread crumbs so that the mixture holds together well enough to form the patties.
• Form the mixture into patties 1/2 inch thick.
• Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Fry the patties on medium heat about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown.
• You will have two batches of patties so you may have to add a little more oil to fry the second batch.
