Salmon With Oregano Sundries Tomatoes Recipes

SUN-DRIED TOMATO CEDAR PLANK SALMON

Steps:

• Soak the cedar planks in water for several hours or overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Brush the planks with olive oil.
• Cut the salmon fillet into three portions. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle parsley and sun-dried tomatoes over the top. Drizzle with salad dressing.
• Place the planks on the preheated grill and let them heat up for about 5 minutes. Place the salmon fillets on the planks. Cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Fish is done when it can be flaked with a fork. Remove quickly to avoid over cooking and drying out the fish. Serve piping hot.

SALMON WITH OREGANO

Steps:

• PREPARATION
• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Use the oil to grease a shallow baking dish that is large enough to fit the fillets in a single layer. Arrange the fish in the dish and turn to coat with the oil. Sprinkle with the lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. Dot with the butter and cover with foil.
• Bake until the flesh is cooked through but still very juicy, 20 to 24 minutes. Serve topped with the pan juices and parsley (if using).

GRILLED SALMON WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATO BUTTER (CALIFORNIA)

Steps:

• For the salmon: Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with the salt, pepper and dried oregano. Drizzle with the olive oil.
• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes on each side until cooked through.
• For the butter: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the butter, sun-dried tomatoes, dried oregano, salt and pepper. Blend until the sun-dried tomatoes are finely chopped. Place in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Serve the salmon with a dollop of the sun-dried tomato butter on top.

AWARD WINNING SALMON WITH GARLIC AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Combine garlic and salt and grind into a paste. Combine the garlic, parsley, dried tomatoes and olive oil in a bowl; blending all ingredients. Chill until ready for use.
• With a sharp knife, cut two lengthwise slits in the salmon fillet, dividing the surface of the fish into thirds. Cut to the skin, but not through it.
• Preheat grill.
• Spread half the garlic mixture over the fillet and into the slits. Place the fish on grill and barbecue over a medium heat. Close the lid and grill for 15 minutes.
• Spread the remaining garlic mixture on the fillet. Close the lid, turning the temperature to high and grill 10 minutes more, or until fish flakes when tested.
• Remove the fish from the grill.

OVEN-STEAMED SALMON WITH LENTILS AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan or soup pot over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add 1/2 teaspoon salt and the garlic. Stir together for a minute, until fragrant, and add the lentils, sun-dried tomatoes, bay leaf, and enough water to cover by an inch. Bring to a simmer, cover and simmer 25 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste and simmer another 5 to 10 minutes, until the lentils are tender and aromatic. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove the bay leaf and the sun-dried tomatoes. Keep warm while you cook the salmon.
• While the lentils are cooking, preheat the oven to 300ºF. Cover a baking sheet with foil and lightly oil the foil. Place the salmon on top. Season with salt and pepper. Fill a roasting pan with boiling water and place it on the oven floor.
• Place the salmon in the oven and bake until the fish flakes and white bubbles of protein appear on the surface, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the fillets. Remove from the heat.
• Using a slotted spoon, spoon the lentils onto 4 dinner plates and place a serving of salmon on top. Sprinkle with herbs, and serve.
