Answers:
Spread MAYONNAISE (yep that's what I said) all over the outside of your salmon---sprinkle it with garlic POWDER and toss it on the OUTDOOR GRILL.... DELICIOUS, you only have to cook it for about a minute or two per side, OR, take the salmon and place it on a piece of aluminum foil (strong enough to grill --like Reynolds Wrap heavy duty foil)...cut up a small union and place it on top of the fish, sprinkle garlic POWDER over that and put in a pat of butter---THEN, get some nice white wine and pour about 1/2 cup over the fish and wrap the foil around it TIGHTLY and put THAT over the coals of your grill.... with the SEAM SIDE UP so as not to spill out any wine.. leave it on the grill for a couple of minutes (depending on the thickness of the fish) and unwrap the foil... the fish will be perfectly steamed by the wine and all the flavors mixed in---you will have one beautifully tender piece of fish that way...in fact, I cook all the fresh water fish I catch (bass, perch and trout) like that and I NEVER have to worry about bones because the meat is so tender it falls right off the bones....
I roast mine with lemon, thyme and tomatoes and serve with either cous cous or new potatoes
This recipe makes four servings, so make it and refrigerate the leftovers for lunch the next day
Salmon with Fresh Pineapple Salsa Recipe
Ingredients:
2 cups coarsely chopped fresh pineapple
1/2 cup chopped red sweet pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon snipped fresh cilantro or chives
1 tablespoon honey
1 small fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 (1-pound) fresh skinless salmon fillet, 1 inch thick
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Directions:
1. For salsa, in a medium bowl combine pineapple, sweet pepper, onion, 2 tablespoons of the lime juice, the cilantro, honey, and jalapeno pepper. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 hours.
2. Lightly grease the rack of an indoor electric grill or lightly coat with cooking spray. Preheat grill. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Cut into 4 serving-size pieces. Brush both sides of fish with the remaining lime juice and sprinkle with cumin.
3. Place fish on the grill rack, tucking under any thin edges. If using a covered grill, close lid. Grill until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. (For a covered grill, allow 4 to 6 minutes. For an uncovered grill, allow 8 to 12 minutes, gently turning once halfway through grilling.) Serve the fish with salsa.
Buy some breaded shrimp. It's so YUMMY!
Alittle butter? Thats it. Try laying the salmon in tin foil covering it with butter and plenty of seasoning. I usually just use the jar of seasoning you can purchase at the grocery store for chicken or fish. I also slice up a lemon. Squirt some juice on the fish and then put the left over slices on top. Wrap the foil up and let it cook on a medium to low heat. Fish usually cooks pretty quickly so you'll want to keep an eye on it but the final product is really good.
rub it with Italian herbs and grill it on top of a untreated cedar plank gives it a nice flavor. or wrap it in phyllo dough and bake it for 15 min.
This one I just started to do and I love it!-- Go to a hardware store and look for cedar shingles (sanded) and when you get home let the shingles soak in water. Allow them to soak up as much water as possible. Now for the Salmon, I drizzle honey and try to distribute as evenly as possible on the meaty side, chop up some lemon grass and sprinkle on top, when the cedar shingle is ready, preheat your oven or grill and place the cedar on the grill with the salmon right on top...Cook untill your desired doneness and enjoy.
Marinate it a few minutes in ginger and Teriyaki sauce and grill it outside (or on a grill pan inside). Top w/ chopped green onions.
Have you ever tried chilling it after, then marinating it in concentrated orange juice? It's delicious. Try chopped scallions over it or fresh basil. Yummy for the summer.
Very easy recipe, your family will want it too...:)
4-6 oz. piece of salmon cut from fillet with skin on
Enough kosher salt to cover a plate
Sauce:
2 oz. Kikkoman soy sauce (low sodium works well too.)
1/2 TBS of grated ginger
1 tsp minced garlic
1 oz. Sake
1/2 TBS scallions cut fine
Any kind of noodle you prefer, ex. soba (buckwheat,) green tea, or egg noodles. Amount... at your discretion :)
Heat soy sauce and sake bring to a boil for about 15 seconds and immediately remove from heat, add ginger, garlic and let them sit for about 20 seconds, add scallions. Chill sauce if you want to serve the noodles cold***
Set up a steamer...bamboo, steamer insert, or simply get a pot and put 3 balls of aluminium foil of equal size and put an oven safe plate on top that will fit in your pot, that you can retrieve easily without burning yourself.
Place fish skin side down on salted plate for about 20 minutes.
Rinse fish of salt and pat dry, steam for about 5-8 minutes, depending on thickness and your desire of doneness.
At the same time cook your noodles in salted water, should take about 4 minutes. Put salmon on noodles and sprinkle with some sauce (a little goes a long way,) leaving most of the sauce in a side bowl for extra dipping if desired.
***you may also cool your noodles in an ice bath and serve with chilled sauce for an invigorating summer dish. Simply serve salmon on a side plate.***
Serve with a salad of baby greens, and a crisp Chardonnay.
