Baked Or Broiled Salmon Recipes

EASY BROILED SALMON

Steps:

• Heat the broiler on high and set an oven rack directly below the heating element (4 inches below). Line a large rimmed broiler-safe baking sheet with foil (for easy cleanup).
• Generously spray both sides of the salmon fillets with olive oil.
• Place the fish fillets in the pan, skin side down. Sprinkle their tops with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme.
• Lightly spray the tops again, to help keep the spices (especially the thyme) moist and prevent them from scorching under the broiler.
• Broil the salmon until opaque and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Serve immediately.

EASY BROILED SALMON RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to 500° or medium.
• Place the salmon skin-side down on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper or foil.
• Evenly squeeze on the lemon juice all over the salmon. Rub the finely minced garlic all over the top of the salmon.
• Drizzle the olive oil covering the salmon then season with salt and pepper.
• Place on a rack that is about 8-10 inches from the top heating element and broil it for 8-10 minutes or until browned and cooked. Set aside and rest for 3-4 minutes before serving.
• In a medium-size bowl add in the red wine, red wine vinegar, and soy sauce and mix until combined. Save about 1/3 of the mixture for later use.
• Add the remaining 2/3 to a large saute pan and heat over medium heat until hot, about 1 to 2 minutes. Turn the heat to low and whisk in the butter until melted in.
• Add in green onions to the sauce and serve the salmon with the sauce.

MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH BROILED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil, and spray with nonstick spray.
• Place garlic and olive oil in a small microwave safe bowl and cook on High for 1 1/2 minutes. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, and stir in the garlic mixture. Remove from heat; stir in the Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, white wine, black pepper, garlic salt, and fines herbs.
• Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared pan. Spoon about 1/3 of the butter sauce over the fillets, and sprinkle evenly with the fresh dill.
• Broil in the preheated oven for 3 minutes. Turn salmon fillets so that the side of the fillet faces up, and baste fillets with about 1/3 of the butter sauce; broil for 3 minutes. Turn the fillets to place the opposite side facing up; spoon on the remaining butter sauce; broil until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 additional minutes.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Place a second oven rack at about 5" from broil element and leave it there (Use an oven thermometer to verify temperature if you're unsure) Place salmon on center rack Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until cooked through Remove fillets from oven and set aside Quickly switch the oven from bake to high broil and allow to preheat for 2 - 3 minutes* Return the fillets to the oven on the second oven rack (see above) Broil for 3 to 5 minutes, watching closely Do not turn fillets Fillets are done when the top is starting to brown and has a slightly crusty texture *If you have two broiler ovens you can pre-heat the second oven while the fillets are baking.
