SALMON WITH SESAME AND HERBS



Salmon With Sesame and Herbs image

The easy-to-memorize marinade for this fast broiled salmon hits all the right notes: salty, sweet and sour. The fish emerges from the oven with caramelized, crisp skin, which contrasts nicely with a salad of fresh parsley or cilantro (or both), tossed with sesame oil and rice wine vinegar. Close contact with the intense heat will help crisp up the skin, while keeping the rest of the fish tender and flaky. To avoid overcooking the salmon, be sure to buy fillets that are at least 1 inch thick, and keep an eye on the fish.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons light brown sugar or honey
4 tablespoons unseasoned rice wine vinegar
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
4 skin-on salmon fillets, 4 to 6 ounces each, at least 1-inch thick
2 tablespoons raw white sesame seeds
1 small shallot, thinly sliced into rings
3 cups cilantro, parsley or both, tender leaves and stems
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

Steps:

  • Combine soy sauce, light brown sugar and 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar in a wide, shallow bowl (or small baking dish) and season with salt and plenty of black pepper. Place salmon skin-side up in the marinade and let sit for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
  • Place a rack in the top third of the oven and heat the broiler.
  • Place salmon skin-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet; discard the marinade. Transfer to oven and broil until the salmon is cooked through and the skin is bubbling and lightly crisped, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toast the sesame seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, tossing frequently until seeds are golden brown and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Toss shallot rings with remaining 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Let sit for a minute or two to lightly pickle, then add the sesame seeds, herbs and sesame oil and toss to combine.
  • Transfer salmon to a large serving platter and spoon the remaining marinade from the sheet pan over the fillets. Top with sesame and herb salad and serve.

BROILED SALMON WITH MUSTARD AND LEMON



Broiled Salmon With Mustard and Lemon image

In this simple salmon recipe, a quick stint under the broiler transforms smooth Dijon mustard into a savory, caramelized crust, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice adds just the right brightness and tang to the rich, sweet fish. Covering the baking pan with a protective layer of aluminum foil helps with the cleanup, meaning you can cook dinner and wash up in under 30 minutes.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, seafood, main course

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (6- to 8-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets, each about 1-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal), plus more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Position one oven rack 6 inches from the broiler heat source then heat the broiler. Season the salmon fillets all over with ½ teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper and place them on an aluminum foil-lined sheet pan, skin side down.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the oil and mustard until well mixed. Brush the tops and sides of the salmon with this mustard mixture.
  • Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. (The center of the fillets will be dark pink, if you pierce one with a paring knife and take a look.) If your fillets are thinner, reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes. If you prefer more well-done fish, add 1 or 2 minutes to the cooking time.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge all over the cooked salmon fillets, then serve salmon with more lemon wedges on the side.

BROILED SESAME SALMON



Broiled Sesame Salmon image

My mom clipped this recipe out of the Chronicle years ago and it's been a family favorite ever since! It's SO easy and quick to make and is SO delicious that even people who think they don't like salmon will LOVE it. Just remember not to over-cook the salmon. It should be dark pink and slightly translucent in the center. I've found if I take it out of the oven when it still looks only half done, it's perfect by the time I serve it.
