Provided by Food Network

Time 27m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pound whole Atlantic or Pacific salmon
1 handful fresh thyme
1 handful fresh oregano
6 cloves, fresh garlic, smashed open
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon crab boil seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1/4 cup olive oil
Heavy duty aluminum foil
Cooling rack

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • With aluminum foil, line large sheet pan (11.5 by 15-inches) so it completely covers the tray. Leave about 12 to 14 inches of excess foil extended over the tray so you can later wrap the fish. Place the cooling rack on the foiled tray allowing for the fish to be elevated.
  • Make sure the salmon is fully rinsed and patted dry. With your hands, rub olive oil around the outside and inside cavity of the salmon. In a small mixing bowl, add the thyme, oregano, garlic, sea salt, and crab boil seasoning. Mix together until incorporated. Rub the inside and outside of the salmon with the herb mixture. Place salmon on the cooling rack and then cover fish completely with the excess aluminum foil. Place into the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Check to see if fish is tender by opening the foil and looking inside the cavity. If there is a light pink color, the fish is ready to serve. If not, keep in the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes maximum. Once salmon is a light pink color, remove from the oven, cut open aluminum foil.
  • To serve, slide a serving spatula between the meat and the bone of the fish. Scoop out and serve.

Sockeye Salmon with Preserved Lemon Beurre Blanc image

We made this recipe for a party, so it's enough for 40 people, but the recipe can easily be scaled down. Beurre blanc is basically a white wine reduction that has been emulsified with butter. Pairs well with a white Burgundy or Chardonnay, or a seasonal beer.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     French

Time 38m

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 12

¾ cup olive oil
½ cup minced chives
¼ cup diced preserved lemon
¼ cup Champagne vinegar
10 pounds sockeye salmon fillets
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ (750 milliliter) bottle white wine
¾ cup sliced shallots
1 pound butter
½ cup minced chives
¼ cup diced preserved lemon
1 cup chopped parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk olive oil, 1/2 cup chives, 1/4 cup preserved lemon, and Champagne vinegar together in a bowl.
  • Lay salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheets. Pour vinaigrette over the top. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until flesh flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 14 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets.
  • Bring white wine and shallots to a simmer in a large saucepan. Cook until volume is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter, whisking constantly until melted. Move saucepan on and off the heat so sauce is just hot enough to melt butter, but never simmering.
  • Stir 1/2 cup chives and 1/4 cup preserved lemon into the beurre blanc. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer salmon fillets to a large platter. Pour beurre blanc on top. Garnish with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon possible. Fresh salmon should have a bright pink or orange color, and it should smell like the ocean (not fishy).
  • Use a variety of bell peppers. Different colored bell peppers will add different flavors and colors to the dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If the pan is too crowded, the salmon won't cook evenly.
  • Cook the salmon until it is just cooked through. Overcooked salmon is dry and flaky.
  • Serve the salmon with a variety of sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

Baked sockeye salmon with bell peppers and capers is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this dish is sure to impress your guests.
