Moroccan Style Grilled Salmon Recipes

MOROCCAN GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Stir together the yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, coriander, cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Pour half of the sauce into a large resealable plastic bag; cover and refrigerate the remaining sauce. Add the salmon to the bag and turn to coat with the marinade. Refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes, turning the bag over once.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high. Remove the salmon from the marinade and blot off excess yogurt with paper towels. Lightly oil the grill and add the salmon; cook, turning once, until browned on the outside and opaque in the center, 4 to 6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness. Serve with the reserved yogurt sauce and garnish with the herbs and lemon wedges.

MOROCCAN-STYLE SALMON AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Heat oil and garlic in a large stockpot over medium heat for 30 seconds. Add harissa and tomato paste. Cook, stirring, until combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in stock, and bring to a simmer.
• Add sweet potato, cauliflower, zucchini, and squash to pot; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Steam, covered, until vegetables are al dente, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Add chickpeas to pot. Season each salmon steak on both sides with salt and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Secure ends of each steak together with a toothpick or wooden skewer. Lay salmon on top of vegetables. Steam, covered, until salmon is slightly firm to the touch, 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro.

MOROCCAN-STYLE GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except salmon in a large bowl or dish.
• Place salmon fillets in the mixture and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 6 hours.
• Oil the grill and heat the coals to a medium. Place the salmon skin-side up on the grill and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side or until done (when the center flakes away easily, and the fish is an opaque pink).
