SENSATIONAL SPICED SALMON

SPICY SALMON RECIPE

Steps:

• Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and let it stand at room temperature for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients. Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking dish or rimmed baking sheet with a piece of aluminum foil large enough to easily wrap all the way around the salmon and seal it. Lightly coat the foil with nonstick spray. With paper towels, lightly pat the salmon dry. Place the salmon in the center.
• In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar, chipotle chile powder, lime zest, and salt. Brush the salmon with the olive oil (or melted butter) and lime juice. Sprinkle with the chipotle seasoning mixture, rubbing if needed to coat the salmon evenly.
• Fold the sides of the aluminum foil up and over the top of the salmon until it is completely enclosed. If your piece of foil is not large enough, place a second piece on top and fold the edges under so that it forms a sealed packet. Leave a little room inside the foil for air to circulate.
• Bake the salmon for 12 to 18 minutes, until the salmon is almost completely cooked through at the thickest part. The cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your salmon. If your side is thinner (around 1 inch thick) check early to ensure your salmon does not overcook. If your piece is very thick (1 1/2 inches or more), it may need longer.
• Remove the salmon from the oven and carefully open the foil so that the top of the fish is completely uncovered (be careful of hot steam). Change the oven setting to broil, then return the fish to the oven and broil for 3 minutes, until the top of the salmon is slightly golden and the fish is cooked through. Watch the salmon closely as it broils to make sure it doesn't overcook. Remove the salmon from the oven. If it still appears a bit underdone, you can wrap the foil back over the top and let it rest for a few minutes. Do not let it sit too long-salmon can progress from not done to overdone very quickly. As soon as it flakes easily with a fork, it's ready. Alternatively, you can check the salmon's temperature with an instant-read thermometer. At 145 degrees F, it is done.
• To serve, cut the salmon into portions. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro or top with an extra squeeze of lime juice as desired.

SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan on medium high.
• Mix together the hot sauce, brown sugar, paprika and cayenne in a small bowl. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the mixture to a large bowl and whisk in the mayonnaise; set aside the rest of the sauce. Add the chives, celery and onions to the bowl with the mayonnaise and toss well.
• Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper. Brush the grill grate lightly with oil. Lay the salmon on the grill, skin-side up, and cook until distinct grill marks appear and the salmon releases easily from the grate, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brush the fish with some of the reserved sauce. Continue to cook the fish, brushing the pieces periodically with the sauce, until the salmon fillets are glazed and just cooked through, 13 to 15 minutes more.
• Transfer the fillets to individual plates and serve with the celery slaw.

SALMON WITH SWEET AND SPICY RUB

Steps:

• Coat your grill or a grill pan with cooking spray and preheat over medium heat. While the grill is heating, combine the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Brush each salmon fillet with 1/2 teaspoon of the oil, then rub each fillet with about 1/2 tablespoon of the spice mixture.
• Grill the salmon, flesh side down, until charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook another 5 to 6 minutes for medium doneness. For well done fish, cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a platter and serve immediately.

CAJUN SPICED SALMON

Steps:

• Put the salmon in a bowl, pour over the lime juice and leave the salmon to 'cure' for 5 mins. Meanwhile, mix all the spices together with the sugar. Lift the salmon out of the lime juice and roll in the spices so it's completely coated.
• Heat grill to high. Grease a baking tray, then sit the salmon, flesh-side up, on the tray. Grill for 5 mins, until the salmon is cooked through and the edges are starting to blacken. While the salmon is cooking, gently mix all the salsa ingredients together with the roughly chopped coriander. When the fish is cooked, serve with the salsa, some rice and the coriander sprigs.

SMOKY AND SPICY ROASTED SALMON

• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, salt, mustard powder, paprika, chili powder, pepper and garlic powder; mix well with a fork.
• Sprinkle the spice rub over the fillets, then turn them, pressing gently, to coat all sides with the rub. Brush the fillets all over with the olive oil.
• Roast the salmon for 12 to 14 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until it flakes easily and is just cooked in the center. Let the salmon rest for 5 minutes, then sprinkle lightly with salt and serve.

SPICY SALMON PATTIES

Steps:

• OPEN THE CANS OF SALMON AND DISCARD THE JUICE INTO THE SINK OR A BOWL.
• HAVE THE SALMON FACING TOWARD YOU AND YOU SHOULD SEE A SMALL ROUND WHITE OR OPAQUE CIRCLE IN THE MIDDLE. THAT IS THE BONE, GENTLY PULL APART THE SALMON (FROM BOTH SIDES, LIKE BREAKING OPEN A MUFFIN) FROM WHERE THE BONE IS AND IT SHOULD BE ONE LONG SPINE LOOKING PIECE. REMOVE THE ENTIRE PIECE, SOMETIMES ONE CAN WILL HAVE TWO STRINGS OF BONE SO JUST TURN THE SALMON OVER AND LOOK FOR ANOTHER BONE. DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE LITTLE BONES ON THE SIDE, THOSE WILL COOK DOWN TO A GEL AND YOU WON'T TASTE IT.
• AFTER DE-BONING THE SALMON BREAK IT APART WITH A FORK AND ADD THE SEASONING SALT, GARLIC POWDER, & CRUSHED RED PEPPER (ADD ALL TO TASTE), EGGS, 1/3 ITALIAN BREAD CRUMBS AND MIX TOGETHER.
• NOW IT'S TIME TO MAKE THE BREADING, PUT THE FLOUR, ½ CORN MEAL/ BREAD CRUMBS AND SALT AND PEPPER IN BOWL AND SIFT TOGETHER WITH A FORK.
• TAKE AN AMPLE AMOUNT OF THE SALMON MIXTURE AND MOLD IT INTO A PATTIE NO BIGGER THAN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND AND COVER BOTH SIDES WITH THE BREADING.
• AFTER THE OIL HAS HEATED IN THE FRYING PAN ( IT WILL LOOK LIKE LITTLE WAVES OF RIPPLES) PLACE PATTIES INTO THE HOT OIL.
• They should hold together, let them reach a nice dark golden brown on each side and when you take them out put them on a paper towel on a plate. For an extra kick squeeze fresh lime juice on them as soon as you take them out of the pan, just before they cool.

SPICY SALMON MARINADE

Steps:

• Cut fish into 4 portions.
• Whisk together wine, olive oil, garlic, pepper flakes, and hot sauce in a small bowl. Pour over salmon and seal bag closed, letting out excess air. Place in refrigerator for 1 hour, turning after 30 minutes. Remove salmon from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and place on a plate to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Discard any remaining marinade.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place salmon flesh-side down on the hot grill. Close the lid and grill for 3 minutes. Flip and grill an additional 3 to 4 more minutes. Sprinkle with salt before serving, if desired.

SPICED SALMON WITH TRAYBAKED SAG ALOO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling salted water for 6 mins. Drain in a colander and leave to steam dry for a few mins. Toss the potatoes in a roasting tin with 1 tbsp oil, the turmeric, ground cumin and chilli flakes and plenty of seasoning. Roast for 20 mins, tossing halfway through. Boil the kettle.
• Put the spinach in a colander and pour over boiling water until wilted. Use the back of a wooden spoon to squeeze out most of the water. Rub the salmon generously with the spice paste and drizzle with oil. Stir the spinach through the potatoes and top with the salmon, skin-side down. Increase the heat to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Return to the oven for 20-25 mins or until the salmon is just cooked. Remove the salmon to stir the cream into the potatoes, then replace the salmon and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over.
