Herb Roasted Salmon Recipes

SIMPLE LEMON-HERB ROASTED SALMON

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the top of the oven, and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, and brush with oil.
• Place the salmon fillets, evenly spaced, in the middle of the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bake until the outside is opaque and slightly firm to the touch and the inside flakes easily (insert a small paring knife between layers to check; the color will vary from bright pink (rare) to pale pink to orange (well-done)), 8 to 12 minutes, depending on the desired doneness.
• Remove the fillets from the oven, top each with a piece of butter and let melt over the top and down the sides. Sprinkle with herbs, lemon juice and salt to taste. Transfer the salmon to serving plates with a spatula. Serve hot or at room temperature.

GARLIC HERB ROASTED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (207°C).
• Combine the melted butter, garlic, parsley, salt, cayenne pepper (if using), lemon juice and black pepper together. Stir to combine well.
• Arrange the salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spoon the garlic herb mixture onto the salmon, coat well on the top and sides of the salmon.
• Bake for 12 minutes. Dish out and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

HERB-ROASTED SALMON FILLETS

ROASTED SALMON WITH GREEN HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Place the salmon fillet in a glass, ceramic, or stainless-steel roasting dish and season it generously with salt and pepper. Whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice and drizzle the mixture evenly over the salmon. Let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, stir together the scallions, dill, and parsley. Scatter the herb mixture over the salmon fillet, turning it so that both sides are generously coated with the green herbs. Pour the wine around the fish fillet.
• Roast the salmon for 10 to 12 minutes, until almost cooked in the center at the thickest part. The center will be firm with just a line of uncooked salmon in the very center. (I peek by inserting the tip of a small knife.) Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
• Cut the salmon crosswise into serving pieces and serve hot with lemon wedges.

SLOW ROASTED SALMON WITH CAPER-AND-HERB RELISH

Steps:

• Meanwhile, make relish: In a small bowl, stir together shallot, capers, lemon zest and juice, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; season with pepper. Add oil, parsley, and mixed herbs; toss to combine.
• Place asparagus in a steamer basket set over a pot of simmering water; steam until spears are crisp-tender and bright green, 3 to 4 minutes. Divide asparagus among serving plates. Place a salmon fillet on each plate next to asparagus, and spoon relish on top of fish.
