BROILED SALMON WITH LEMON AND DILL



Broiled Salmon with Lemon and Dill image

I love salmon. Oftentimes it's so smothered in things. I wanted to make a broiled recipe that let the salmon shine on its own.

Provided by Sloppy

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Seafood Main Dish Recipes     Salmon     Broiled Salmon Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds salmon, skinned and deboned
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lemon
½ tablespoon chopped fresh dill, or more to taste
½ tablespoon garlic powder, or more to taste
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Rub salmon down in olive oil. Cut your lemon in half and set 1 half off to the side. Cut the other half into 1/4-inch thick slices. Lay them on a broiler pan and lay the salmon on top of them. You just need enough to cover the bottom of the salmon so it's not touching the pan. Sprinkle with dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lightly squeeze the remainder of the lemon over the whole salmon; not too much, you don't want your seasoning to run off.
  • Cook in the center of the preheated oven on a low broil until easily flaked with a fork but still juicy, 15 to 20 minutes.

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.

Provided by Melissa Clark

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.

GRILLED SALMON IN FOIL WITH HERBY GARLIC BUTTER



Grilled Salmon in Foil With Herby Garlic Butter image

This easy grilled salmon in foil recipe is totally foolproof, resulting in flaky fish with a garlic-herb butter sauce. And did we mention cleanup is a breeze?

Provided by Rachel Gurjar

Time 36m

Yield 2 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 Tbsp. honey
1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt
1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature
2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill, plus more for serving
1 (1 lb.) boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on
4 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, divided

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium heat. Whisk 1 Tbsp. honey, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Add 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature, and 2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill and whisk again to combine (some lemon zest may remain separate and that's okay).
  • Tear off a large piece of foil according to the length and thickness of salmon (15x15" or larger) and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Place one 1 lb. boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on, arranging skin side down if skin is on, in center of foil (the skin will stick slightly to foil and brown while the fish cooks; you want this as it will add to the sauce). Spread garlic butter over fish, then drizzle 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice on top. Carefully fold one side of foil up and over fish so lemon juice stays contained, then bring other sides up to meet it and fold together to seal, leaving about a 4" opening on top for steam to escape (this will help sauce reduce a bit).
  • Place foil packet on grate and grill fish until opaque throughout and firm, 16-20 minutes. Transfer packet to a cutting board and let fish rest 5 minutes.
  • Carefully open foil packet and cut fish in half. Transfer to plates; pour juices from packet over. Drizzle fish with remaining 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, dividing evenly, and top with more finely chopped dill.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, choose a salmon fillet of uniform thickness.
  • Baking the salmon wrapped in parchment paper helps retain moisture and enhances its flavor.
  • Use fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, or dill to add a burst of flavor to the salmon.
  • Season the salmon generously with salt and pepper to enhance its natural taste.
  • Broil the salmon on high heat to create a crispy crust while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
  • Garnish the cooked salmon with lemon slices and fresh herbs for an appetizing presentation.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Buttery Broiled Salmon with Lemon offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures, making it a perfect choice for a healthy and satisfying meal. By following these tips, you can achieve perfectly cooked salmon that is moist on the inside and crispy on the outside. Experiment with different herbs and seasonings to create your own unique flavor profile. Serve the salmon with roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete and balanced meal.
