Easy Elegant Salmon Recipes

EASY HONEY GARLIC SALMON

Steps:

• Arrange oven shelf to the middle of your oven. Preheat oven to broil/grill settings on medium heat.
• Season salmon with salt, pepper and paprika. Set aside.
• Heat the butter in a skillet or pan over medium-high heat until melted. Add the garlic and sauté for about a minute, until fragrant. Pour in the honey, water and soy sauce; allow the flavours to heat through and combine. Add in the lemon juice; stir well to combine all of the flavours together.
• Add the salmon steaks to the sauce in the pan; cook each fillet (skin-side down if there's any skin) for 3-4 minutes or until golden, while basting the tops with the pan juices. Season with salt and pepper, to taste (if desired).
• Optional -- Add the lemon wedges around the salmon (adds a stronger lemon taste). Baste salmon one more time then transfer the pan to your oven to broil / grill for a further 5-6 minutes, or until the tops of the salmon are nicely charred, and the salmon is cooked to your liking.
• To serve, drizzle with the sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with steamed vegetables; over rice or with a salad.

EASY ELEGANT SALMON

Steps:

• Coat salmon with mustard on both sides.
• Finely chop dill and sprinkle on both sides of the fish. The mustard with make it stick.
• Cook in a 450 degree oven or on a stovetop to desired doneness. I like my salmon still pretty pink in the middle, and that takes about 7 minutes. There is no need to turn if you cook it in the oven; on the stove, turn once.
• ENJOY!
