Salmon Recipes!

Sometimes I sprinkle some Weber Beer Can Chicken seasoning on it (that stuff is great on everything btw) and just fry it in a frying pan in a little duck fat (a half teaspoon - 20 cals). Other times I marinate it in a little teriyaki sauce first, and pour a little more on top when I serve it.

I like having it with a little salsa or Trader Joes low cal guacamole. Guac and salmon taste amazing together.

And now I"ve made myself hungry.

I love salmon, it's my favorite fish.

I just made salmon tonight - delish!!!

I marinated salmon with hoisin sauce, orange juice concentrate, soy sauce, ginger, and grated orange peel.

Broiled 4 inches from element for 4 minutes per side, brushing with marinade.

The kids rated it a 10/10!!!

I poach it in a bit of water with a drop of white wine, add lemon and dill.

I made this yesterday...
Placed the salmon fillets on a half slice of smoked bacon and 1/2 lemon slice on top and baked at 375. If any of the fillets have a thin side, tuck this under the fillet. While it is baking take 2 TBS of balsamic vinegar; 1 TBS honey; 1 TBS creole mustard and warm and blend in a small skillet. Add a TBS of cold butter. 5 mins before salmon is finished, baste with the sauce. This is to die for. Discard the bacon because all it's needed for is to add a suttle smoked flavor.

I put a fillet on some foil with various veg - leeks, spring onions, green beans, peas, baby corn, etc. No oil. Wrap into a parcel and bake in oven. Soooo good Usually the fish and most of the veg are frozen too so it takes me about 2 mins to prepare. The veg softens beautifully and creates a sort of sauce.

I might be totally boring but I just bake or pan fry mine with 1/2 tbsp butter, lemon juice, salt and pepper. perfect every time!

I eat salmon in the Japanese style very often - just finished eating a piece, and since I put it in my lunch box I need the simplest thing possible, so I take a big side of salmon, salt it liberally on both sides, wrap in paper towels and plastic wrap, and put it in the fridge overnight. 24 hrs later, I cut it into 1 serving portions (abt 60g each raw in my case) and then wrap each one individually and freeze them inside a ziplock bag.

Then when you want a piece, they will thaw in the fridge over a day, on the counter in a hour or two or 1 min in the microwave. Then I usually broil them because it takes 5 mins or so, or you can pan sear without oil or if you're feeling fancy, dredge in flour and briefly fry it.

It's really cheap and easy.

I do these Grilled Salmon Kebabs almost every week in summer. (The first time I made them, my BF liked them so much, he even at the lemons, rinds and all). I'll serve it with salad or brown rice or grilled veggies - sometimes we just eat them on their own.

Ingredients

2 tbsp chopped fresh oregano (Sometimes I used bottled/dried)
2 tsp sesame seeds
1 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1-1/2 pounds skinless wild salmon fillet, cut into 1-inch pieces (can use farm-raised if you prefer).
2 lemons, very thinly sliced into rounds** (I like thicker slices and tend to use 3-4 lemons.)
olive oil cooking spray
1 tsp kosher salt
16 bamboo skewers soaked in water 1 hour (I have a metal set of skewers about 12" long for my grill, and this usually makes 4-6 skewers of those).

Directions:

Heat the grill one medium heat and spray the grates with oil. Mix oregano, sesame seeds, cumin, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl to combine; set spice mixture aside.

Beginning and ending with salmon, thread salmon and folded lemon slices onto 8 pairs of parallel skewers to make 8 kebabs total. Spray the fish lightly with oil and season kosher salt and the reserved spice mixture.

Grill the fish, turning occasionally, until fish is opaque throughout, about 8 to 10 minutes total.

My crew likes salmon patties...

2 cans (6oz) canned salmon with the bones...pulse in a food processor to mush the bones into the salmon (you can do this by hand, too, btw, the bones are super soft)
1 cup finely diced onion
1/2 cup finely shredded carrot
1/2 cup finely shredded celery
1T dill
1tsp salt and pepper
2 egg whites

Blend all this together til well mixed. Form patties (about 1/3 cup of mixture) and either bake, broil or pan fry til golden brown and 165F in the center.

Definitely trying this one!

Def gonna try some of these, thanks for asking OP!
