Lemon Garlic Herb Crusted Salmon Recipes

LEMON GARLIC SALMON

Steps:

• Season salmon fillets on both sides with lemon pepper.
• In a large skillet, melt butter over medium high heat. Stir in garlic. Place salmon in pan. Cook for 10 minutes per inch of thickness, or until fish flakes when tested with a fork. Flip fillets halfway through cooking to brown on both sides. Sprinkle with lemon juice before serving.

LEMON HERB CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, combine garlic (or onion powder), lemon juice, parsley, paprika, salt and pepper.
• Place salmon on a baking pan covered with parchment paper. Cover with lemon and herb mixture.
• Bake salmon for 10 to 12 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork.
• Plate and enjoy!

BALANCING LEMON GARLIC HERB CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat broiler on high or oven to 400 degrees.
• Chop garlic, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and mash with the side of a chef's knife until you have a puree. Alternately just finely chop the garlic.
• Melt butter or ghee in a small sauté pan. Remove from the heat.
• Add garlic, lemon juice, parsley, dill, and pepper. Mix to combine.
• Place the salmon fillet on broiling pan or parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Using a spoon, spread the lemon-herb mixture evenly over the top of the fillet.
• Sprinkle with the almond flour.
• Broil on the middle rack for 8-10 minutes, or until salmon is almost cooked through for medium rare. It should still be a little pink in the middle, as it will continue to cook once removed from the oven. If you like salmon more well-done leave it to cook a few more minutes but turn the temperature down to 400 degrees so the top doesn't burn. This method gives you a nice crunchy, caramelized crust.
• Alternately the fish can be baked in a 400-degree oven on the top rack for 10-12 minutes, or until cooked through.

HERB-BAKED SALMON WITH LEMON AND GARLIC RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• Place all ingredients except for salmon in a small bowl and melt in the microwave for 30-45 seconds.
• Stir until combined.
• Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat.
• Using a pastry brush, coat the salmon with the lemon herb butter, evenly spreading it over the tops of each fillet.
• Bake, uncovered, on the top or second to top rack for 10-12 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. (145 degrees F)
• Alternately the fish can be broiled on medium/high on the second to top rack for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked through. This method will give you a bit more crunchy, caramelized crust. (Place it directly on the pan or use tin foil. Do not use parchment paper or a Silpat for this method.)

HERB-CRUSTED SALMON WITH ROASTED LEMONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Toss panko with herbs and 1 tablespoon oil.
• Place salmon (skin down) on parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread evenly with mustard; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with reserved panko mixture, patting gently. Scatter lemons around salmon and drizzle them with oil.
• Roast salmon until it flakes easily, 18 to 20 minutes. With a large spatula, loosen it from skin (which should stick to parchment). Transfer fish to platter and garnish with roasted lemons.

LEMON PANKO CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Combine panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, lemon pepper, thyme, parsley, granulated garlic, and lemon zest in a bowl. Arrange salmon on the prepared baking sheet and brush with melted butter. Sprinkle bread crumb mixture evenly over salmon fillets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.

ROASTED SALMON WITH LEMON-GARLIC HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine butter, thyme, rosemary, garlic, pepper, lemon zest and lemon juice.
• Arrange salmon filets skin-side-down in a baking pan.
• Gently spread butter mixture evenly over filets. If desired, garnish by arranging lemon slices (two per filet) atop filets and top each filet with sprig of rosemary. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
• Roast for 12-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily when fork-tested.

LEMON-HERB CRUMBED SALMON

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix bread crumbs, garlic, parsley, parmesan, thyme and salt, set aside.
• Place salmon skin side down on foil-lined baking dish.
• Mix butter and lemon juice in bowl.
• Brush salmon with butter-lemon juice mixture, using about 3/4 of the mixture.
• Top with crumb mixture, patting it on by hand.
• Drizzle remaining butter mixture over top.
• Bake at 350 until flakey, about 25 minutes, can brown under broiler if desired.
• Now, the original recipe called for 2-1/2 cups breadcrumbs, 6 tablespoons of parmesan cheese, twice as much parsley, 1 tablespoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 6 tablespoons of butter. We thought this tasted wonderful as is, you be the judge.
