HORSERADISH HERB CRUSTED SALMON RECIPE

Stir the bread crumbs, dill, horseradish, melted butter, lemon zest and salt. Squeeze the lemon juice over the salmon and then pack the bread mixture on top in an even layer. Crimp the foil edges just over the salmon to make a ridge that will prevent any juices from escaping. The salmon package will resemble a little canoe. Place the salmon on the grill and close the lid. Cook for 8 minutes for medium doneness and about 11 minutes for well done. Remove the salmon using 2 spatulas and place on a serving tray or platter. Decorate around the foil with dill sprigs and lemon wedges, and serve.

MAPLE-BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Remove salmon from the refrigerator. Heat oven to 325 degrees.
• Bundle the cilantro sprigs by their stems and hold them tightly, then slice the stems crosswise until you get to the leaves. Reserve leaves for garnish. Transfer sliced stems to a small bowl and stir in the maple syrup, mustard and mayonnaise until well mixed.
• Season the salmon all over with salt and pepper and place in a baking dish, skin-side down if there is skin. Slather the maple sauce all over the top.
• Bake until a paring knife slides into the center with only a little resistance, 15 to 20 minutes. When you remove the knife and touch the blade to your upper lip, it should feel very warm but not hot. The salmon will continue to heat through out of the oven while in the baking dish. Top with the reserved cilantro leaves, and squeeze lemon wedges all over just before serving.
