Best 9 Spice Rubbed Salmon With Herb Sauce Recipes

SPICE-RUBBED SALMON

Steps:

• Season salmon filets with pepper. Rub grilling spices into flesh side of fillets. (If you are not grilling right away, refrigerate, wrapped in plastic, for up to 2 days.)
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat a large, ovenproof saute pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle olive oil over both sides of fillets. Place fillets spice side down in hot saute pan. Sear until the spices are brown, about 3 minutes. Carefully turn salmon, and transfer saute pan to oven. Bake until fillets are firm to the touch, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve with black beans and corn.

SALMON WITH HERB & GARLIC CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Season: Pat salmon dry, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Pan-sear: Heat oil in a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add salmon, presentation side down, and cook for 3 minutes until golden brown.
• Flip: Turn salmon and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 49°C / 120°F (for medium-rare, recommended) or until cooked to your taste (Note 5).
• Butter baste: When it's almost cooked, add the butter. Melt, then spoon over the salmon a few times.
• Rest: Remove salmon onto plate, and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
• Sauté garlic: Add garlic and stir for 20 seconds or until light golden.
• Reduce wine: Add white wine, turn up heat to high. Bring to simmer while stirring base of the pan to dissolve all the golden bits into the sauce. Cook 1 minute or until it most evaporates and the wine-y smell is gone.
• Thicken cream & stock: Add cream and chicken stock, then simmer on medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until reduced and slightly thickened.
• Add parmesan & herbs: Stir through parmesan (this will thicken sauce more), then the herbs. Taste sauce and see if more salt and pepper is needed.
• Serve: Serve salmon with Creamy Sauce, ensuring there's something on the plate to soak up all that amazing sauce! Mashed Potato rates highly. See above video for list of suggestions (including side salads).
