Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Good olive oil
1 cup chopped sweet onion, such as Vidalia
2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
2 cups (1 pint) cherry or grape tomatoes, halved through the stem
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons good balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons julienned fresh basil leaves
1 (2-pound) salmon fillet, cut crosswise into 4 pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium (10-inch) saute pan. Add the onion and saute over medium-low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until very tender but not browned. Add the garlic and saute for 1 more minute. Stir in the tomatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates and the tomato sauce thickens slightly. Off the heat, stir in the vinegar and basil.
  • Meanwhile, place a large (12-inch) cast-iron pan over high heat for 5 minutes. Brush the salmon all over with olive oil, sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, and place it skin side up in the pan. Cook the fish for 3 to 4 minutes without moving them, until browned. Turn the salmon skin side down with a small metal spatula and transfer the pan to the oven for 8 minutes. (The salmon will not be completely cooked through.) Remove the fish to a serving platter, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Reheat the tomatoes, season to taste, and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature along with the salmon.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1/4 cup parsley leaves, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large plum tomatoes, halved crosswise
Nonstick cooking spray
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
One 12-ounce center-cut salmon fillet, skin removed (about 1 1/2 inches thick)

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the top third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Toss the panko, Parmesan, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper together in a small bowl. Arrange the tomatoes in the center of the prepared baking sheet, cut-side up (trim a small slice from the bottom of each tomato if they will not stand upright) and spoon the panko mixture evenly over each. Spray the breadcrumbs lightly with cooking spray. Lay the zucchini halves cut-side up on one side of the tomatoes. Drizzle zucchini with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the vegetables begin to soften and the panko topping begins to brown, about 18 minutes.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and place the salmon fillet on the other side of the tomatoes. Drizzle the salmon with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the zucchini and tomatoes are completely tender and browned in spots, and the salmon is cooked through but moist, about 12 minutes more. Divide salmon and vegetables between two plates and serve.

Tips for the Best Salmon with Zucchini and Tomatoes:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful salmon, zucchini, and tomatoes will make all the difference in this dish.

  • Roast the vegetables until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a flavorful marinade or sauce. A simple marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs will add flavor to the salmon. You can also use a store-bought sauce, such as pesto or teriyaki sauce.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides. Roasted potatoes, quinoa, or steamed vegetables are all great options.
