Salmon With Lemon-Herb Marinade image

Here's one of the easiest ways to entertain: broil or grill a large salmon fillet, then adorn it with lemon wedges and rosemary sprigs. This recipe marinates the rich salmon in lemon juice, soy sauce and herbs. Serve it with a sharply flavored potato salad (like this one, with red Bliss potatoes and watercress in a yogurt-horseradish dressing) and a large bowl of greens.

SPICY SALMON MARINADE

Spicy Salmon Marinade image

This white wine, rosemary, and garlic marinade is given a kick with crushed red pepper and hot sauce. As written, the heat level is mild, but adjust to your tastes by adding more hot sauce or a spicier hot sauce. I like to use a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, and serve the rest of the bottle chilled with dinner. This salmon tastes best when cooked on an outdoor grill.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
2 cloves minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground pepper, to taste
4 teaspoons chopped pitted kalamata olives
1 lb salmon fillet
4 lemon wedges

Steps:

Cut salmon into 4 portions and place in a shallow dish.
Wisk lemon juice, olive oil, chopped fresh rosemary, garlic, salt and freshly ground pepper to taste in a small bowl.
Use 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice mixture to marinate the salmon.
Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes.
Stir 4 tsp chopped pitted Kalamata olives into the remaining lemon juice mixture for sauce.
While salmon marinates, heat grill to medium-high.
Just before cooking, lightly oil grill rack by rubbing a piece of oil-soaked paper towel over surface (use tongs to hold paper towel).
Do not spray a hot grill with cooking spray; it could cause an explosion.
Place salmon pieces skin side up, on grill.
Close lid and cook for 4 minute.
Using two metal spatulas, carefully turn salmon pieces over; cook just until opaque in the centre and fish flakes when tested with a fork 4 to 8 minutes longer, depending on thickness.
Serve the salmon with the sauce and lemon or lime wedges.

Tips:

When choosing salmon, opt for wild-caught fish if possible, as it's generally considered to be healthier and more flavorful than farm-raised salmon.
If you're using frozen salmon, make sure to thaw it completely before marinating and cooking.
The marinade is what gives this dish its incredible flavor, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use fresh lemons, garlic, and herbs for the best results.
If you don't have time to marinate the salmon for the full 30 minutes, even a shorter marinating time will still impart some flavor.
When cooking the salmon, be careful not to overcook it. Salmon is a delicate fish, and it cooks quickly. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
Serve the salmon immediately after cooking, while it's still hot and flaky.

Conclusion:

This salmon recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy this healthy fish. The spicy lemon marinade adds a ton of flavor, and the salmon cooks quickly and evenly. Whether you're serving it for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, this salmon dish is sure to impress.
