Herbed Pan Roast Of Salmon With Warm Greens And Herb Vinaigrette 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.

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.

PAN SEARED HERBED SALMON

Steps:

• Rub the salmon steaks on all sides with olive oil.
• Combine all herbs and seasonings in a small bowl.
• Sprinkle mixture over salmon on all sides.
• Place salmon in a screaming hot frying pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until both sides are lightly browned and crisp. Keep pan covered. Do not overcook, as fish will turn out dry.

HERB-ROASTED SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Place salmon in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan, skin side down. Combine remaining ingredients; spread over fillets. Roast to desired doneness, 15-18 minutes.

HERB-CRUSTED SALMON ON GREENS

Steps:

• Whisk lime juice, ginger, and mustard in small bowl. Slowly whisk in 4 tablespoons oil. Season dressing with salt and pepper.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon, herb side down; sauté 4 minutes. Turn over; sauté until salmon is just opaque in center, about 5 minutes.
• Toss greens with remaining herbs and some dressing. Divide between 2 plates. Top with salmon and remaining dressing.

PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH FRESH HERBS
