Golden Salmon Recipes

GOLDEN SALMON BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 9- x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, dressing, mustard, and onion; mix well.
• In another small bowl, combine bread crumbs, butter, and paprika; mix well.

THE BEST BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl. Mix the panko with the parsley, butter, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper in another small bowl.
• Place the salmon skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet and spread the surface with the Dijon. Press the brown sugar mixture all over the salmon then top with the breadcrumb mixture. Crimp all four sides of the foil to create a border around the salmon, this will help collect the juices so they don't spread and burn. Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden brown, and the salmon is firm and flakes easily when pressed, 15 to 18 minutes. Cut into four equal portions for serving.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED SALMON WITH SPINACH, OLIVES, AND GOLDEN RAISINS

GOLDEN FRIED SALMON SPRING ROLLS WITH LIME CHILI MAYO SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk together the mayonnaise, chili paste and the lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set the sauce aside.
• Divide the salmon evenly into 8-12 portions. Try and slice them in 1 x 1 x 4 pieces (about the size and shape of a candy bar). If you can't make them all the same size you can mix and match smaller pieces to make a portion.
• Heat a deep-fryer filled with canola oil to approximately 350°F.
• Make a paste with the flour and water.
• Place your spring roll wrapper on an angle so that it is a diamond. Close to the bottom corner, place a portion of salmon, 1/2 tablespoon of garlic and ginger each and some cilantro.
• Carefully start to roll from the bottom corner wrapping around the salmon. When you are about halfway up the wrapper, fold in the side corners tightly and finish the roll.
• Smear a small amount of the flour paste at the top right corner and seal the roll shut.
• When you are close to serving the spring rolls, submerge them in hot oil about 4 at a time and cook until golden brown, or about 3-4 minutes.
• Serve with the mayo in dipping cups.
