Time 27m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pound whole Atlantic or Pacific salmon
1 handful fresh thyme
1 handful fresh oregano
6 cloves, fresh garlic, smashed open
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon crab boil seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
1/4 cup olive oil
Heavy duty aluminum foil
Cooling rack

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • With aluminum foil, line large sheet pan (11.5 by 15-inches) so it completely covers the tray. Leave about 12 to 14 inches of excess foil extended over the tray so you can later wrap the fish. Place the cooling rack on the foiled tray allowing for the fish to be elevated.
  • Make sure the salmon is fully rinsed and patted dry. With your hands, rub olive oil around the outside and inside cavity of the salmon. In a small mixing bowl, add the thyme, oregano, garlic, sea salt, and crab boil seasoning. Mix together until incorporated. Rub the inside and outside of the salmon with the herb mixture. Place salmon on the cooling rack and then cover fish completely with the excess aluminum foil. Place into the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Check to see if fish is tender by opening the foil and looking inside the cavity. If there is a light pink color, the fish is ready to serve. If not, keep in the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes maximum. Once salmon is a light pink color, remove from the oven, cut open aluminum foil.
  • To serve, slide a serving spatula between the meat and the bone of the fish. Scoop out and serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 28m

Yield 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1½ pounds Alaska Sockeye Salmon
Cooking spray
1½ teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
½ cup white wine
2 Tablespoons melted butter or extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tablespoons finely minced fresh garlic
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh herbs

Steps:

  • Remove Alaska Sockeye salmon from refrigerator 15 minutes before cooking. Heat grill to 375°F. Cut 2 pieces of wide, heavy-duty aluminum foil about 6-inches longer than the salmon side. Stack the foil pieces (shiny side down) on a baking sheet and spray generously with cooking spray. Place the salmon, skin side down, in the middle of the foil. Fold the foil sides and ends up (1 to 2-inches) to make a shallow pan around the salmon, leaving at least a 1-inch margin around the fish. Season salmon with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix together the wine, butter, garlic and herbs. Spoon the mixture over the top of the salmon, drizzling with any remaining liquid. Carefully transfer the foil pan to the center of the preheated grill. Do not cover the salmon with foil or close the foil over the salmon. Close grill cover and cook for 10 to 13 minutes, cooking just until fish is lightly translucent in the center - it will finish cooking from retained heat. Remove from the grill and let rest a few minutes before serving.
  • Roast in an oven preheated to 375°F, cooking 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly translucent in the center. Be sure to let the salmon rest a few minutes before serving.

BONNIE'S ROASTED SOCKEYE SALMON



BONNIE'S ROASTED SOCKEYE SALMON image

Oven roasted Sockeye Salmon is a dish your family and friends will request often. It is definitely company-worthy. Don't skip this cooking technique, because roasting the fish in a cast iron skillet is what makes this fish moist, flaky, and cooked to perfection every time. If you haven't tried this method, you haven't had good salmon!

Categories     Fish

Number Of Ingredients 4

- 1 to 1 1/2 pounds fresh sockeye salmon fillet, about 2 inches thick with skin on the bottom.
- enough bacon grease to coat the bottom of the hot cast iron skillet
- oil to brush on the fish. i used olive oil
- kosher salt and coarse black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Select a cast iron skillet a little larger than the fish. Preheat the oven and the skillet to 450 degrees. Remove the skillet from the oven and lightly coat the bottom of the skillet with bacon grease. Close oven door.
  • Moving quickly, brush the top and bottom of the fish with olive oil and season top with kosher salt and coarse ground black pepper.
  • Place the skin side down in the hot skillet and put it back in the hot oven. Don't cover. Roast 15 to 18 minutes until a thermometer probe says it is 125 degrees, then it is done. Take it out of the oven (it is still cooking in the skillet!) Serve immediately. The fish should be flaky and moist. I like to serve it with my Potato Loaf and green beans.
