Grilled Salmon With Cilantro Sauce Food

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.

CEDAR PLANK-GRILLED SALMON WITH CILANTRO PESTO

Steps:

• This recipe is for OUTSIDE gas or charcoal plank-grilling.
• For the Cedar Planks: I use UNTREATED 1 by 8 construction grade cedar cut to the length of the amount of salmon you wish to cook. (I cut mine in 10-inch lengths for 2 (8- ounce fillets)
• Soaking the planks: Pre-soak cedar planks for at least 1 hour, preferably longer or overnight. Weigh down planks with heavy cans or stones to completely submerge the wood in water.
• Lightly coat the salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place salmon on cedar plank skin-side down.
• Turn on your gas grill to high heat. Place planks (loaded up with salmon) on the grill and close lid. Your grill will now turn into an oven/smoker. Cooking time required will vary depending on the size of the salmon. Be careful when you are lifting the grill lid because the burning plank will produce a lot of smoke. Try to keep the lid closed as much as possible as not to lower the temperature inside the grill. When salmon is cooked, remove fish from plank and plunge wood into a bucket of cold water. Serve the salmon immediately with the Cilantro Pesto.
• Place first 4 ingredients in blender or small food processor and completely puree. Add lime juice, jalapeno, and salt and pepper, to taste.

GRILLED SALMON WITH TOMATO-GINGER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Grate the tomatoes on the large holes of a box grater into a medium bowl; discard the skins. Stir in 1/3 cup cilantro, the vinegar and ginger; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Spread the cauliflower florets on one half of a 24-inch-long piece of foil; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon garam masala and dot with the butter; season with salt and pepper. Fold the foil over the cauliflower and crimp the edges to seal and form a packet. Season the salmon with salt, pepper and the remaining 1 teaspoon garam masala.
• Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Grill the foil packet on one side of the grill until the packet is puffed and the cauliflower is lightly charred and tender, about 6 minutes per side. Grill the salmon on the other side of the grill until opaque but still pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate. Grill the naan until lightly toasted, about 1 minute per side; cut into wedges.
• Carefully open the foil packet and toss the cauliflower with the remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro. Top the salmon with the tomato-ginger sauce and serve with the cauliflower and naan.

HONEY-SOY GRILLED SALMON WITH CILANTRO NOODLES

Steps:

• Prepare a medium-hot grill. While grill is heating, soak the vermicelli in a large bowl with hot water until soft, about 20 minutes. Brush the salmon with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Make the glaze for the salmon by combining 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, and 1/2 tsp ground pepper. Set aside.
• Make the dressing; in a small bowl combine 4 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, sesame oil and lemon juice. Place salmon skin side up and place on an oiled grill. Grill for around 2 minutes Turn salmon over and brush with glaze. Cover and cook until salmon is opaque, but very moist (depending on size 3-5mins approx). I did not use a grill, instead I just broiled the fish, and did not turn it over as it had no skin on it. While the fish is cooking drain the vermicelli and pat dry with paper towels. Toss the noddles with the dressing, cilantro and sesame seeds. Serve with salmon.

• When ready to grill or broil, remove salmon from the marinade. It's OK to have some remnants of the marinade on the salmon, but discard the excess marinade. Season both sides of all fillets with hickory smoked salt.
• Place salmon fillets on hot grill, and grill the first side for about 5 minutes. Turn once and grill or broil other side until salmon is done (about another 5-7 minutes). Cooking times can vary depending on thickness of the fillets and the temperature of your grill.

• Approximately 10 to 15 minutes before placing the salmon on the grill, began preparing the rice by heating the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan. Stir in chopped onion and cook for 3 minutes; add rice and sauté an additional minute.
• Add pineapple, pineapple juice, water, and salt; bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Fluff with fork and stir in chopped cilantro.
• Place salmon over medium heat on gas grill or over charcoal, cook until fish flakes easily, turning once; approximately 10 to 12 minutes total.
• While salmon is cooking, prepare the sauce by bringing to a boil the white wine, sugar, ginger and lime juice. Reduce to 3/4 cup; this should take about 7 to 10 minutes.
• Brush the sliced onions with the reserved marinade and grill until done, turning as needed.
• Mix cornstarch with a small amount of water until smooth, whisk into wine along with butter. Cook 1 minute or until thick, add scallion and keep warm.
