Best 5 Broiled Salmon With Cilantro And Lime Recipes

CILANTRO LIME SALMON

Steps:

• Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a nonstick skillet and place over medium-high heat. Season the salmon on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the fish to the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish and the degree of doneness you like. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add the honey, soy, remaining 2 tablespoons butter and half of the lime zest and juice. Cook, stirring, until the butter melts and starts to bubble. Cook for a minute until the sauce thickens a little. Add the salmon and spoon over the sauce. Cook for another minute, basting as you go. Sprinkle generously with the cilantro.
• Stir the remaining lime juice and zest into the cooked rice. Serve the salmon with the rice, extra sauce and lime wedges on the side.

GRILLED CILANTRO SALMON

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stir together cilantro, garlic, honey, and lime juice. Heat until the honey is easily stirred, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and let cool slightly.
• Place salmon steaks in a baking dish, and season with salt and pepper. Pour marinade over salmon, cover, and refrigerate 10 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Place salmon steaks on grill, cook 5 minutes on each side, or until fish is easily flaked with a fork.

BROILED SALMON WITH CILANTRO AND LIME

Steps:

• Place fish on plate.
• Combine cilantro, garlic, lime juice, oil and salt in a bowl.
• Set 2 tablespoons aside in a separate bowl.
• Pour the cilantro mixture over the fish (do not use the 2 Tbsp reserved marinade).
• Cover and let it sit 10 minutes.
• Spray broiler rack with nonstick cooking spray.
• Place salmon on rack and brush with 1 tablespoon marinade.
• Broil 6" from heat about 3-4 minutes.
• Turn steaks over and brush with remaining tablespoon of marinade.
• Broil 3 more minutes or until cooked through.
• Note: I have used two very thick salmon steaks instead of the four 3/4 inch thick ones that the recipe calls for, and I have used the same amount of marinade.
• However, since thicker steaks will take longer to cook, the marinade can burn.
• To compensate for this, I add a little bit of marinade at a time.
• For example, if the salmon steaks are 1- 1 1/2 inch thick or more, they can take around 10 minutes to cook.
• So I brush the salmon steaks with less marinade, around 1/2 tablespoon.
• I then remove them from the broiler after 2 1/2- 3 minutes, and add a little more marinade, reserving enough for two more applications.
• Then I broil for another 2 1/2 minutes.
• I then turn the salmon over and add more marinade, still reserving a little.
• I broil another 2 1/2 minutes.
• I then add the remaining marinade and broil the remaining 2 1/2 minutes or until cooked through.
• This may seem tiresome, but it's well worth it.
• The marinade is great and you definitely don't want it to burn!
