Oven Steamed Salmon Food

SALMON BAKED IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sprinkle salmon with 2 teaspoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir the tomatoes, shallots, 2 tablespoons of oil, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper in a medium bowl to blend.
• Place a salmon fillet, oiled side down, atop a sheet of foil. Wrap the ends of the foil to form a spiral shape. Spoon the tomato mixture over the salmon. Fold the sides of the foil over the fish and tomato mixture, covering completely; seal the packets closed. Place the foil packet on a heavy large baking sheet. Repeat until all of the salmon have been individually wrapped in foil and placed on the baking sheet. Bake until the salmon is just cooked through, about 25 minutes. Using a large metal spatula, transfer the foil packets to plates and serve.

OVEN-STEAMED SALMON

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and a second rack in the upper third. Heat the oven to between 225 and 275 degrees. Grease a thin sheet pan with olive oil.
• Carefully place a frying pan of just-boiled water on the lower oven rack. Arrange the salmon on the prepared sheet pan, season generously with salt and pepper, and place on the upper oven rack. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 110 degrees for rare, 115 degrees for medium-rare, or 125 degrees for medium. This should take 10 to 12 minutes for 5-ounce fillets or 20 to 25 minutes for a 2 1/2-pound fillet. (The color of the salmon will not turn dull, and the texture will be very juicy.)
• Transfer the salmon to a platter or one or more individual plates and season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Sprinkle with chives, if using, and serve.

OVEN STEAMED SALMON WITH CHILI AND GINGER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Arrange salmon in a single layer in a shallow baking dish.
• In a bowl, combine ginger, cilantro stems, garlic, chilies, lime juice, fish sauce and sugar. Spoon mixture over fillets. Cover dish with foil and seal edges.
• Bake in a for 8 to 10 minutes, or until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
• Garnish with green onions and cilantro leaves.

BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Brush each salmon fillet with the oil or butter and season well.
• Put the salmon fillets in an ovenproof dish. Cover if you prefer your salmon to be tender, or leave uncovered if you want the flesh to roast slightly.
• Roast for 10-15 mins (or about 4 mins per 1cm thickness) until just opaque and easily flaked with a fork. Serve with a sprinkling of chopped herbs, lemon slices and steamed long-stem broccoli, if you like.

STEAMED SALMON

Steps:

• Fill a large skillet with water to a depth of 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Place salmon in a bamboo steamer. Cover and place steamer in skillet. Cook until just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve immediately with lemon.

STEAMED SALMON

Steps:

• Set the steamer inside your cooking pan and add enough water to just reach the bottom of the steamer. Remove the steamer and set aside.
• Add the grated garlic, lemon slices and fresh dill sprigs to the water. Place the lid on the pan and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer while preparing the salmon fillets.
• If your salmon has a thick end and a thin end, you can either slice off the thin end and use for another dish or fold the thin end underneath to make it equal to the thick portion. Season the salmon fillets with salt and fresh ground black pepper.
• Spray the steamer with non-stick oil spray and place inside the pan of water. Check the water level to ensure the water does not touch the steamer. Add the salmon fillets and place a tight-fitting lid on the pan and maintain a strong simmer.
• Steam the fish for 5-minutes, remove the lid then using the tip of a sharp knife, check the salmon for doneness in the thickest part of the fish. It should be opaque on the outside and just a little translucent in the center and gives slightly when you press it. That is medium-rare and perfect!
• An instant meat thermometer will read between 120°F and 125° for medium-rare. Between 125°F and 140°F, it's medium to well-done.
• When the salmon fillets have reached the desired temperature remove the pan from the heat and transfer the salmon to individual plates and serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges and fresh dill.

STEAMED SALMON WITH SOY GLAZE

Steps:

• Place the salmon in a shallow glass dish. Combine 3 t. of the soy sauce, the garlic, grated ginger, and 1 T. of the rice wine and pour over the salmon, turning to coat. Cover and marinate for 15 minutes in refrigerator.
• Place the vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, the remaining soy sauce, and the remaining rice wine in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir to dissolve the sugar, bring to a boil, and cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Set the glaze aside and keep warm.
• Fill a large saucepan with 1 inch of salted water and bring to a boil. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place in a steamer basket that fits snugly over the pan. Scatter the scallions and shredded ginger over the salmon. Cover and steam over the boiling water for 4 minutes or until cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
• Cook the noodles according to package directions. Just before they are done, add the beans to the boiling water; strain. Serve the salmon over the noodles & beans, drizzled with the glaze.

OVEN-STEAMED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place salmon in a large baking dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread with garlic and ginger and pour wine and soy sauce gently over top. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until easily flaked with a fork, about 25 minutes.

OVEN STEAMED SALMON WITH CHAMPAGNE-BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• To oven-steam, first fill a pan with 1" of hot water -- place the pan in the oven before adding the water to avoid sloshing it. Note: Be sure the pan is deep enough to hold about 1" of water without touching the fish. Preheat oven to 325.
• Position cooling rack over a baking sheet; spray with nonstick spray. Place prepared fillets skin side down, on the rack, 1/2" apart. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place the rack on top of the pan in the oven: oven steam salmon 15-18 minutes, or until desired doneness is reached. Prepare the sauce while the fish steams.
• To test fillets for doneness, gently squeeze the sides -- they should spring back, not feel too soft or firm. And the color should be coral, not opaque.
• Champagne-Butter Sauce:.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, saute shallots in 1 T. buttter until soft ( do not bown). Add champagne, broth, and lemon juice; simmer until reduced by half, about 5 minute.
• Reduce heat to mediumlow and stir in heavy cream. Whisk in cold butter by tablespoons, stirring constantly. Do not add more until the previous piece has melted completely.
• Strain the sauce through a fine mesh strainer. Stir in the chopped chives and salt to taste. Serve immediately, or remove from heat and hold, following the instructions below.
• Holding sauce -- Transfer sauce to a bowl, then nest it in a larger bowl of hot water. Cover loosely with plastic and stir often. Don't let it get too hot (it may break) or too cold (it will solidify).

OVEN-STEAMED FISH WITH MIXED-NUT SALSA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Pick a baking dish that will fit all the fish fillets in an even layer. Scatter the whole parsley sprigs in the dish. Pat the fish dry and season all over with salt and pepper. Lay the fish on top of the parsley sprigs. (The herbs keep the fillets from sticking to the pan and will lightly flavor the fish.) Pour enough boiling water around the fish to cover the bottom of the dish. Seal the dish tightly with foil and bake until the fish is opaque and flakes with a fork, about 10 minutes for thin fillets like sole and up to 20 minutes for dense fillets that are 1-inch thick or more.
• While the fish is cooking, stir together the chopped parsley, nuts, olive oil, vinegar, honey and ½ teaspoon black pepper. (Measure the pepper; it's more than you think.) Season to taste with salt.
• Transfer the cooked fish to plates, and discard the parsley and water. Spoon some salsa over fillets and pass the rest at the table.
