Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 clove garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
½ cup butter
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
¼ cup white wine
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 ½ teaspoons fines herbs
¼ cup chopped fresh dill

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a jelly roll pan with aluminum foil, and spray with nonstick spray.
  • Place garlic and olive oil in a small microwave safe bowl and cook on High for 1 1/2 minutes. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, and stir in the garlic mixture. Remove from heat; stir in the Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, white wine, black pepper, garlic salt, and fines herbs.

Turn the fillets to place the opposite side facing up; spoon on the remaining butter sauce; broil until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 additional minutes.

MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH SALMON FILLETS (CONVECTION OVEN METHOD)



Melt-In-Your-Mouth Salmon Fillets (Convection Oven Method) image

I make my salmon this way very often in my convection oven, the mayonnaise coating will seal in flavor and moistness creating the most flavorful moist salmon! I don't bother measuring amounts so all amounts are only only estimated really the exact amounts do not matter for this, use as much salmon as desired and use enough mayonnaise to coat all sides of the salmon generously --- I prefer to use Atlantic salmon for this but any salmon fillet will do, cooking times will vary just slightly depending on the size of your fillets --- for this recipe you will need a flat wire rack to fit in your baking pan this will allow the air to circulate around the fish.

SMOKED SALMON PATTY MELT



Smoked Salmon Patty Melt image

I recently came up with this as part of trying to find dishes that had big taste in smaller portions. I live in AK and have a large amount of high grade smoked salmon products right here at my front door. I love smoked salmon but wanted to incorporate into more than chowder or over green salad. This is my spin on the usual Patty Melt.
