ROASTED SALMON WITH YOGURT DILL SAUCE



Roasted Salmon With Yogurt Dill Sauce image

Juicy, roasted salmon is so tender and the creamy yogurt sauce, packed with the flavors of dill, chives, garlic and lemon, is perfect to serve alongside.

Provided by Olga's Flavor Factory

Categories     Entree

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 portions of salmon fillets
1 Tablespoon olive oil
salt and ground black pepper
3/4 - 1 cup Greek yogurt
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
1 Tablespoon fresh dill, minced
1/2 Tablespoon fresh chives, minced
1 garlic clove
salt, ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Make the yogurt sauce in advance and store in the refrigerator or prepare it while the fish is in the oven.
  • Mix the yogurt, lemon juice, dill and chives. For the garlic, I like to smash it lightly and add it to the sauce and then remove it before serving. This will give a mild garlic flavor to the sauce, but won't be too overpowering. You can also mince the garlic, or grate it on a microplane, if you want to have a stronger garlic flavor. Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Minced capers are a great addition to this sauce too.
  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a rimmed baking sheet into the oven to heat up.
  • Meanwhile, season each salmon fillet with salt and pepper and rub each fillet with oil all over.
  • When the oven has preheated to 500 degrees and the baking sheet has been in the oven for about 10 minutes, take out the baking sheet and place the salmon, skin side down, onto the searingly hot baking sheet. You will hear it sizzle and the skin will start to sear right away.
  • Place the fish in the preheated oven. Reduce the heat to 250 degrees and roast the fish for 12 - 15 minutes.
  • Serve the salmon with the yogurt sauce.

I.C. SALMON WITH DILL-YOGURT SAUCE



I.C. Salmon with Dill-Yogurt Sauce image

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets, 3/4- to 1-inch thick, preferably wild-caught, thawed if frozen (see Chef's Note)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 lemon
1 cup (260 grams) whole milk yogurt (not Greek-style)
1/2 cup (23 grams) chopped fresh dill fronds
2 teaspoons stone-ground mustard
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
3 grinds black pepper
2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or canola

Steps:

  • Place the salmon on a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet. Rub the fillets with 2 teaspoons of the salt, then refrigerate for 45 minutes. Meanwhile, set your immersion circulator bath for 124 degrees F (51 degrees C).
  • Pat the salmon dry with paper towels, then divide between two gallon-size vacuum-seal or high-quality freezer zip-top bags. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of the olive oil to each bag, then gently rub the fish to coat. Use a peeler to harvest eight strips of lemon peel and place two strips, pith-side up, on top of each fillet. Halve and juice the lemon; set the juice aside to use in the sauce. If using vacuum-seal bags, use the "gentle" or "moist" setting to seal the bags.
  • Transfer the fillet bags to the water bath. If using zip-top bags, let the salmon sink, forcing the air out of the bag via displacement. Right before the mouth of the bag goes into the water, seal the bag. Leave the salmon to cook for 45 minutes. (If one of the bags floats, carefully reopen and try the sink-and-seal method again.)
  • While the salmon cooks, make the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, dill, mustard, horseradish, and pepper. Stir in the remaining teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice. Stir well, then season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and lemon juice, if desired. Set aside until ready to serve.
  • When the salmon is finished, remove it from the water bath. Open the bags and very carefully remove the fish to a paper towel-lined sheet pan. Pat the fish as dry as possible with additional paper towels. Brush the skin side lightly with some of the neutral oil.
  • Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat for 3 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons of the neutral oil and swirl the pan to coat. When the oil starts to smoke, add two of the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Brush the flesh side lightly with additional oil. Cook until the skin is browned and crisp, about 1 minute. Carefully flip with a narrow metal spatula or "fish turner" and cook on the second side just until just brown, about 30 seconds. Carefully transfer to a serving platter and repeat with the remaining oil and fillets. Serve with the dill-yogurt sauce.

6 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tablespoons dill (fresh, chopped)

  • Bake 20-30 minutes or until salmon flakes.
  • Stir remaining tablespoon of dill into remaining drained yogurt, garnish each piece of baked salmon with a dollop of dill sauce.

Tips:

  • To ensure the salmon is cooked evenly, make sure the fillets are of uniform thickness. If they are not, adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • If you don't have a grill pan, you can also cook the salmon in a regular skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to add a little oil to the pan to prevent the fish from sticking.
  • The yogurt dill sauce is a great way to add flavor and moisture to the salmon. If you don't have any fresh dill, you can use dried dill instead.
