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.

SMOKED SALMON CHEESE MOLD

Steps:

• Combine cream cheese, pimientos, onions and almonds. Spoon mixture onto parchment paper, wrap and place in a bowl to form a mold. Chill for 4 to 6 hours. Once chilled, remove from mold, unwrap and place on serving plate.
• Spread evenly with sour cream and garnish sprinkled with dill. Serve mold on a platter or cheese board with assorted crackers.

SALMON MOLLEE

Steps:

• Mix the turmeric and salt in a bowl and roll the fish in the mixture.
• Leave to sit while you make the sauce.
• If using cardamom pods or whole cloves, crush to a fine dust.
• Melt the butter or oil in a frying pan and add onion, garlic, ginger and spices (except cinnamon stick, if using), cooking gently for 2-3 minutes until onion starts to soften.
• Add the coconut milk and cinnamon stick, simmering gently until thick (8-10 minutes).
• Taste and adjust with lemon juice.
• You can let the dish sit for up to 15 minutes at this point if you want to delay dinner a bit.
• Add the fish to the sauce, gently stirring it to loosen the turmeric and cover the fish.
• Cook for 10 minutes over a medium heat or until the salmon is just cooked.
• Garnish with coriander and serve over rice or, if you prefer, very thin, cooked Asian noodles.

SALMON MEUNIERE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
• Season salmon with salt and pepper. Place flour in a small dish and lightly dredge the salmon pieces, shaking off any excess.
• Heat butter and oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon, flesh-side down, into the pan and brown for 3 minutes. Gently flip pieces over and cook an additional 3 minutes. Remove salmon to a plate and keep warm in the oven. Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel.
• Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Melt butter for sauce, then whisk in lemon juice and lemon zest. Cook and stir until warmed and slightly reduced, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in parsley. Drizzle sauce over salmon and serve.

GOURMET SALMON DINNER RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the creamy shallot potato puree: Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.
• Add the garlic and another tablespoon of butter and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shallots are browned.
• Add the milk, white pepper, and salt and stir to incorporate.
• Transfer the shallot mixture to a food processor and process until smooth.
• Mash potatoes in a large bowl. Add the shallot puree and continue to mash until fully incorporated. Set aside.
• Make the sautéed vegetables: Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften.
• Push the mushrooms to one side of the pan and add a bit more oil. Add the asparagus and season everything with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Make the salmon: On a cutting board, cut 4 slits in the salmon skin, roughly ¼-inch (6 mm) apart and ½-inch (12 mm) into the salmon flesh. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme leaves.
• Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add the salmon, skin-side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until a lighter pink color has reached ⅓-½ of the way up the side of the salmon.
• Flip the salmon and immediately add the butter, garlic, and a few sprigs of thyme. Stir the garlic and thyme around the pan to infuse the flavors and spoon the butter over the salmon for 2 minutes more, until the salmon is cooked through. Remove the salmon from the pan.
• Add the potato puree to plates and top with the sautéed vegetables and salmon.
• Enjoy!
