Coriander Coated Salmon Recipes

FOUR-SPICE SALMON

Steps:

• Season fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. If necessary, combine spices and grind them to a coarse powder in a coffee or spice grinder. Press some of the mixture onto the top of each fillet.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 2 or 3 minutes. Add the oil or butter and, when it shimmers, place the fillets, coated side down, in the pan. Cook about 2 to 3 minutes, or until the spice mixture forms a nicely browned crust.
• Turn the fillets and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the salmon just slightly resists when pierced with a thin-bladed knife.

CORIANDER SALMON

Steps:

• In a small dish, combine the salt, pepper and coriander. Sprinkle over salmon. In a nonstick skillet, cook salmon in oil over medium heat for 4 minutes on each side. Add the garlic, lime juice and hot pepper sauce. Reduce heat; cover and cook 3-4 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

CORIANDER-CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine coriander, flour, almonds, salt, and pepper. Place on a shallow dish. Drizzle flesh side of salmon with olive oil and coat with coriander mixture.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat about 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, carefully place salmon in the pan, flesh side down. Let cook, without moving, 2 minutes. Turn, and cook, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

CORIANDER-CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine coriander, flour, almonds, salt, and pepper. Place on a shallow dish. Drizzle flesh side of salmon with olive oil and coat with coriander mixture.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat about 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, carefully place salmon in the pan, flesh side down. Let cook, without moving, 2 minutes. Turn, and cook, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Drizzle with olive oil and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

CORIANDER CRUSTED SALMON ON WARM POTATO AND ARUGULA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Coat each salmon fillet on 1 side with the ground coriander and black pepper, and set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, soy sauce, chives, red onions, and rice wine vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Set aside. Cut the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes with the skins on. Blanch in very salty water and keep warm.
• In a small pot over medium heat add the blanched potatoes and dressing and bring to a slow simmer. Season with salt and pepper and keep aside.
• With a very hot skillet, sear the salmon, coriander side down, with a little olive oil. Cook on 1 side for approximately 1 to 2 minutes, and then flip over and place on a small oven proof platter to finish in the oven for about 5 minutes.
• In a bowl, mix the arugula with the lime juice, black pepper, and salt.
• To serve, spoon the warm potato salad on the center of each plate. Place the salmon fillets on top and add the arugula around the plate.

CHIVE-CORIANDER SALMON AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water; season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 minutes; drain and return to the pot. Stir in the butter, 1/2 tablespoon chives, and salt and pepper to taste; cover to keep warm.
• Rinse the salmon under cold water; pat dry. Brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon, skin-side down; cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, until the skin is crisp, 5 minutes. Flip the salmon; continue cooking, flipping occasionally and sprinkling with the coriander and the remaining chives, until just opaque, about 7 more minutes. Remove from the skillet.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cabbage and tarragon to the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until the cabbage is wilted, 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the salmon with the cabbage and potatoes.

CORIANDER AND MUSTARD SEED CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• For the crust: In a bowl, blend the panko, mustard seeds, coriander seeds and parsley together. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the wash: In a second bowl, blend the mustard with 1/2 cup water, whisking well to blend.
• For the sauce: Whisk the yogurt, sour cream, watercress, vinegar, mint and garlic in a bowl. To ensure the spices are blended, scrape the sides and whisk a second time. Hold at room temperature if using within 30 minutes, or refrigerate for future usage.
• For the salmon: Coat the salmon with the wash, and then finish the top side (skin side) with the crust. Repeat the process with each fillet.
• In medium saute pan over medium heat, coat the bottom of the pan with the oil. When warmed, add the crusted side of the salmon to the pan and cook, in batches, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fish and finish cooking until desired temperature. Remove from the pan.
• Finally, sauce the plates with 2 ounces of the watercress/mint sauce. Top with the salmon and fresh herbs if desired.

SALMON WITH HONEY-CORIANDER GLAZE

Steps:

• Toast the coriander seeds in a dry, large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until golden, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool. Grind seeds in a spice grinder or crush with a mortar and pestle until coarsely ground; reserve skillet.
• Make glaze: Stir together crushed coriander seeds, honey, soy sauce, and lemon juice in a small bowl until combined.
• Lightly brush the top of each salmon fillet with glaze; reserve remainder. Heat oil in the nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Cook salmon fillets, glazed sides down, 1 minute; reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 2 minutes more. Turn fillets over, and cook 3 minutes for medium-rare (salmon will be slightly pink in the middle), or longer if desired. Transfer to a plate; loosely cover with foil to keep warm.
• Pour remaining glaze into skillet; bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until glaze has thickened to the consistency of syrup, about 1 minute. Serve salmon with glaze on the side.

CUMIN CORIANDER CRUSTED SALMON

Steps:

• Combine cilantro shallots, oil, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper in a small bowl, stirring to form a paste. (can be made ahead of time).
• Place fish, skin side down, in a shallow baking dish. Coat with cilantro mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400.
• Arrange fish on the rack of a roasting pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
• Note: The recipe called for 2 tsp oil, but with the fish being as oily as it is, you can get away with 1 teaspoons.

CORIANDER COATED SALMON

Steps:

• Mix the orange peel and parsley (and a chopped clove of garlic if you like it) in a bowl and chill.
• Mix the corander, pepper and brown sugar in another bowl.
• Sprinkle the salmon with a little salt. Coat salmon on all sides with the spice mixture.
• Melt 1/2 Tbsp butter and 1/2 Tbsp oil in a heavy large skillet over med-high heat.
• Add 3 salmon fillets. Cook fish until the crust is golden and center is opaque, about 4 minutes per side. (I like salmon on the rare side, so cook only 3 minutes if you do too).
• Transfer to a platter, tent with foil to keep warm. Wipe skillet, and then repeat with remaining butter, oil and salmon.
• When all the salmon is done, spoon the fresh parsley mix on top and serve.

GRILLED CHILLI & CORIANDER SALMON WITH GINGER RICE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan and put the kettle on to boil. Fry the onion for a few mins until lightly browned. Stir in the ginger and garlic, fry for 1 min, then stir in the rice. Add 300ml boiling water and a little salt, then bring to the boil. Cover and cook for 10-12 mins until the rice is tender. Heat grill to medium.
• Brush a baking tray lightly with a little oil. Put the salmon on top and grill for 4-5 mins, then scatter with chilli, coriander, remaining olive oil and seasoning. Grill again for just 4-5 mins until the salmon is cooked through. Serve with the rice and lime halves for squeezing over.

PEPPER- AND CORIANDER-COATED SALMON FILLETS

Steps:

• Mix parsley and orange peel in small bowl. Mix coriander, brown sugar and black pepper in medium bowl. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover separately. Chill parsley mixture. Store spice mixture at room temperature.)

Cook fish until crust is golden and center is just opaque, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter. Tent with foil to keep warm. Wipe skillet. Repeat with remaining butter, oil and salmon. Spoon parsley mixture atop salmon and serve.
