Low Cal Salmon Recipes?

I put my salmon in silver foil (loosely wrapped) for 30 minutes, on 200 degrees. Then I have it with 2 steam bags of vegetables. Done and served - Super easy, super tasty, super healthy.

Salmon all alone is a bit on the higher calorie side for fish (more good for you fats) but I bake it with nothing on it at all (fresh salmon) and it is awesome. Add a slice of rye bread and some steamed veggies - nom nom nom

Bake it with garlic and a drizzle of honey.

I like to marinate the salmon in a mixture of equal parts Yoshida Teriyaki Marinade, Sherry, and water. (cuts down the calories) then after about an hour or two marinating, grill it on the BBQ grill. You can brush it with the sauce as it is cooking.
Another recipe is to coat it well with Blackening seasoning, and either grill or pan fry it. Try marinating in orange juice and bourbon before oven roasting it. ( a couple of ounces of OJ and just a shot of bourbon, plus one for the cook!!) Baking it in a foil pouch with fresh Rosemary sprigs after a light coating of olive oil is also good.

I usually steep good quality fresh salmon fillets.
It's a foolproof recipe for a guy like me .
Fill a pan with just enough water to cover the salmon.
Take the salmon out.
Bring the water to a boil.
Put the salmon back in.
Turn off the heat and cover the pan.
Set the timer for 11 minutes.
Done!

Grilled on a cedar plank for the smoke A little Johnny's seasoning and it's perfect !!

Baked Salmon
Ingredients
• 2 cloves garlic, minced/1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 6 tablespoons light olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 4 fillets 4oz salmon
Directions
1. In a medium glass bowl, prepare marinade by mixing garlic, light olive oil, basil, salt, pepper, lemon juice and
parsley. Place salmon fillets in a medium glass baking dish, and cover with the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator about 1 hour, turning occasionally.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3. Place fillets in aluminum foil, cover with marinade, and seal. Place sealed salmon in the glass dish, and bake 35 to 45 minutes, until easily flaked with a fork.

1) Drained horseradish, panko breadcrumb, some dill, tbsp of olive oil, s&p, spread on the top of the salmon and bake

2) Mix maple syrup and dijon mustard together and brush on top of salmon and bake

these are my 2 go-to salmon recipes.

Marinate in SoyVey (or similar) for 20-30 minutes and broil. I get a big filet and slice it into pieces. Perfect every time. We have it once or twice a week and it is always yummy.

LOL I have just eaten my favourite salmon supper : Salmon, noodles, mushrooms and pak-choi. Wonderful and takes 15 mins start to finish.

200g salmon (I like a lot of salmon when I have it SO good for you)
Mushrooms - chestnut, ****ake, button whatever you like
30g dry weight fine noodles
Pak-choi as much as you fancy - white bits sliced and green bits shredded
Garlic clove - crushed
Table spoon of sesame oil - or spray oil to cut calories
Salt and pepper
Soy Sauce - I prefer dark soy for this

Put kettle on and cover noodles in a bowl with water when boiled
Heat 1/2 tbspn oil in a small frying pan. When warming up put salmon in skin side down. Keep turning as you go on.
Heat 1/2 spoon oil in non stick pan. Fry garlic, white bits of pak-choi and mushrooms with Dark Soy Sauce. Stir fry over a highish heat till starting to cook, add green bit bits of pak-choi, salt and peper
Drain noodles and add to vegetables. Add more soy if required.

At the same time as stir frying the veg, be turning the salmon over till cooked through and when all done serve. Simple but really tasty.

Depending on what oil you use this is a 550-600ish calorie dish - Enjoy

The foil packet is a nice and easy way to go. I usually put asparagus on bottom, salmon on top and a couple slices of lemon on top of the salmon. Drizzle with olive oil. Goes great with brown rice.

^^^^^ sounds great!

We just usually mix a little olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, and fresh rosemary and rub it on the salmon before tossing it in the oven or on the grill.

Oh, wild sockeye ftw.

Recipe:

Preheat oven to approx 200 degrees centigrate, around 400 degrees farenheight - for fan ovens reduce to 180 degrees c
finely slice the chilli papper and then combine all the marinade ingredients i.e everything apart from the salmon into a bowl or tupperware.... shake/stir thoroughly. i usually add itin the following order : lemon jouice, mix in honey, mix in soy sauce, add olive oil, then add chilli, then taste as you might want to add a touch mroe soy or honey depending on your tastes....

if you are going to be serving with noodles/vegetables and want a sauce for them, you can separate out half the marinade before adding salmon (reduce contamination with the fish) and then add salmon to the remaining marinade, leave for 1/2 hour while heating oven.

line a baking tray with baking paper, plunk the salmon into the middle of the paper along with the marinade it's sitting in, and scrunch it up so that the salmon is wrapped up like a parcel. this is important because otherwise the honey in the marinade will burn - it needs to be properly wrapped. bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes (i usually go with 25)

if you have saved some of the marinade to flabour a stir fry then again remember that honey will caramelise/burn very quickly over a flame and cook your noodles and veg thoroughly first and just add the marinade in the last minute or two.



hope this helps :-)

I like to do it with either a very nice mustard...like a French dijon or spicy variety. The other option I like is to just BBQ it. I just prep it, coat it, and bake it. It's fast and you don't need any oil or extra fat. I will also make a tinfoil pouch of some veggies like cauliflower or carrots and seal that up and bake it alongside the fish's baking dish on the oven rack. Very easy--very yummy.

In a foil paper, on your salmon fillet... add a mix of 1/2 orange juice ... 1/2 Tamari.... garlic, pepper, ground ginger to taste... and veggies

(The liquids quantity depends on how much salmon you make, so it can be 1/2 a cup of each or less... or more!)

Put in oven until done! or BBQ!
