Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Blend the tarragon with bread crumbs, salt and pepper, to taste, in a food processor, pulsing in the dill last. Remove and stir in just enough melted butter to create the consistency of wet sand.
- Pat the salmon dry and season on all sides with salt and pepper, to taste. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large saute pan and sear the salmon, flesh side down, over medium- high heat, about 2 minutes. Do not crowd pan. Flip and top each fillet with the herb/crumb mixture. Put the pan in the oven and bake until the fish flakes with a fork. About 8 to 12 minutes. Transfer the fish to a platter and serve immediately.
ROASTED SALMON WITH GREEN HERBS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Place the salmon fillet in a glass, ceramic, or stainless-steel roasting dish and season it generously with salt and pepper. Whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice and drizzle the mixture evenly over the salmon. Let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl, stir together the scallions, dill, and parsley. Scatter the herb mixture over the salmon fillet, turning it so that both sides are generously coated with the green herbs. Pour the wine around the fish fillet.
- Roast the salmon for 10 to 12 minutes, until almost cooked in the center at the thickest part. The center will be firm with just a line of uncooked salmon in the very center. (I peek by inserting the tip of a small knife.) Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Cut the salmon crosswise into serving pieces and serve hot with lemon wedges.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality salmon: This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Look for salmon that is firm to the touch and has a bright pink color.
- Choose a flavorful herb blend: The herbs you use will add a lot of flavor to the salmon, so choose a blend that you enjoy. Some good options include rosemary, thyme, dill, and parsley.
- Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the salmon until it is just opaque in the center, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Serve the salmon with a flavorful sauce: A simple lemon-butter sauce is a great way to enhance the flavor of the salmon. You can also try a creamy dill sauce or a tomato-based sauce.
