Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (5-ounce) skinless wild Alaskan salmon fillets
Coarse salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for pan
1/4 cup slivered almonds
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/4 cup, plus 1 tablespoon lowfat plain Greek yogurt
1/2 small shallot, very thinly sliced
1 cup fresh herbs, such as mint, chervil, or parsley

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 250 degrees; on a lightly oiled baking sheet, season fillets with salt. Bake 15 minutes, then check for doneness. (The finished fillet will have exuded a small amount of liquid and be firm to the touch, flaking with gentle pressure.) Return to oven, checking for doneness every 2 minutes.
  • In a small saute pan, heat oil over medium heat and add almonds, stirring until they become fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool, then stir in lime juice and season with salt. Mix in yogurt until fully combined. Chill until ready to use.
  • To serve, dollop each fillet with yogurt sauce and sprinkle with shallot and herbs.

SPICY BAKED SALMON RECIPE WITH LIME AND HARISSA



Spicy Baked Salmon Recipe with Lime and Harissa image

Spicy salmon with harissa sauce is all you need for a light, flavor-packed dinner! Ready in just 15 minutes or so, it's the perfect fish dinner for busy weeknights. I recommend using a center-cut salmon fillet to ensure the entire piece of fish cooks at the same speed. For the sauce, homemade harissa or a quality store-bought one will work. Serve this harissa lime baked salmon with a side of bright veggies like sautéed asparagus or crispy lemon broccoli and grains of your choice.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ pounds salmon fillet
Kosher salt
Extra virgin olive oil,
2 to 4 tablespoons harissa paste, (homemade or store-bought)
1 to 2 tablespoons honey
Juice of 2 large limes, (plus optional lime wedges to serve)
3 to 4 large garlic cloves, (minced)
1 teaspoon Aleppo pepper
1 teaspoon coriander
½ teaspoon cumin
½ teaspoon ground ginger
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Make the sauce. In a mixing bowl, add ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil with the harissa paste, honey, lime juice, garlic, spices, and a pinch of kosher salt. Whisk to combine. Set the sauce aside for now.
  • Pat the salmon dry and season on both sides with kosher salt, then place it in a lightly oiled 9" x 13" baking pan. If you like, you can pour a little harissa sauce into the center of the baking pan, and then place the salmon on top.
  • Spoon the sauce all over the salmon and spread it well.
  • Cover the baking pan with aluminum foil and place it on the center rack of the heated oven.
  • Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until salmon is almost completely cooked through at the thickest part (cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your fish. If your salmon is thinner, check several minutes early to ensure your salmon does not overcook. If your piece is very thick, 1 ½ or more inches, it may take a bit longer.)
  • Carefully remove from oven and open foil to uncover the top of the salmon. Place it under the broiler briefly, about 3 minutes or so. Watch closely as it broils to make sure it doesn't over-cook and the garlic does not burn.)
  • Remove from the oven and serve with lime wedges to the side.

ROASTED SALMON WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Ginger-Lime Butter image

Wild Pacific salmon is available in spring and summer, and the flavor is phenomenal. It definitely tastes better than farmed salmon and is always a better choice, sustainably speaking. Though it is expensive, think of it as a seasonal treat. Whether you choose wild king salmon, coho or sockeye, take care not to overcook it.

Categories     dinner, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1 1/2 pound) wild salmon fillet, such as king or coho, at room temperature
Salt and pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1 teaspoon lime zest
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 pound baby spinach
Lime wedges, for serving
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, green and white parts

Steps:

  • Lay the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the ginger-lime butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, ginger, lime zest, lemon zest and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir well to combine.
  • Transfer salmon, uncovered, to the oven to cook for about 8 minutes. Check the salmon once or twice as it cooks. Depending on the thickness of the fish, it should be fully cooked when little white juices appear on the surface - moist and yielding with big flakes when probed. It may take 10 minutes for thick fillets.
  • As the salmon cooks, put 2 tablespoons ginger-lime butter in a wide deep skillet or large pot over medium heat. When butter is melted, add spinach and a pinch of salt. Put on the lid and turn heat to medium-high. (You may need to add the spinach in batches.) After 2 minutes, remove lid and stir spinach to help it wilt. When all spinach is wilted, turn off the heat.
  • Transfer salmon to a platter or divide among individual plates. Smear the remaining ginger-lime butter on the fish. Surround with wilted spinach and lime wedges, and top with scallions.
