Black Pepper Yogurt Salmon Recipes

YOGURT AND SPICE MARINATED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.☞TESTER TIP: Be certain to turn the fan on your oven or exhaust or the burnt-on remnants of last weekend's apple pie will suddenly fill the kitchen.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, garlic, harissa, turmeric, paprika, lime zest and juice, olive oil, and salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed.
• Add the salmon and toss to coat. (You can cover and refrigerate this for up to an hour or two if need be but it's not at all necessary.) Spread the salmon on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast the salmon until it's the same color throughout, about 10 minutes.
• Serve the salmon immediately with tortilla wraps, tomatoes, finely sliced onion, cilantro, and Greek yogurt.

YOGURT AND SPICE ROASTED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to its highest setting (with fan if it has one). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
• Mix all the marinade ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Add the salmon and turn until well coated in the marinade.
• Spread the salmon out on the prepared baking tray and roast for 10 minutes until cooked through. Remove from the oven and serve immediately with tortilla wraps, tomatoes, finely sliced onion, coriander leaves and Greek yogurt.

CRACKED BLACK PEPPER SALMON

Steps:

• Spread 1/2 the black pepper on a plate.
• Smear 1 tsp olive oil over one side of the salmon fillets.
• Lay the fillet, oiled side down in the pepper.
• Lift and put on a baking sheet, peppered side up.
• Repeat the process with the second fillet.
• Bake at 350 F or 180 C for around 20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily.

SALMON WITH YOGURT-CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• If yogurt is very thin, put it in a cheesecloth-lined strainer over a bowl. Cut cucumber in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Chop flesh, sprinkle it with salt and put in a strainer over a bowl.
• If making spice mix (see note), combine all spices in a skillet and toast over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Grind to a coarse powder in a spice mill.
• Put a skillet over medium heat; if it is other than nonstick, add oil. Season fish with salt and pepper and add it to pan; raise heat to medium high. Combine cucumber with yogurt and one tablespoon of spice mix in a bowl; taste and adjust seasoning.
• After salmon has cooked for 4 minutes, turn it and cook on other side another 2 to 5 minutes. Serve, browned side up, with sauce and lime on the side.
