SEARED SALMON FILLET

Steps:

• Heat a large non-stick pan over high with olive oil. Liberally season salmon with salt and pepper. Place skin side down in pan and reduce heat to medium-low. Do not move fillets. Allow to cook about 7 minutes or until well browned and cooked about three quarters of the way through. Turn fillets and cook about 3 minutes more, or until still just barely pink in the center. Serve immediately, with the skin side up.

SEARED SALMON WITH HORSERADISH AND SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Season both sides of salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Spread 1 tablespoon horseradish onto skinned side of each fillet.
• Heat oil in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat untilhot but not smoking. Add salmon, horseradish side up,and sear on 1 side, about 2 minutes. Without flipping fish,transfer skillet to oven, and bake until salmon has cookedthrough, about 6 minutes. Transfer salmon to a platter, flippingfish, and sprinkle with scallions.

BAKED HORSERADISH SALMON

Steps:

• Place salmon skin side down in an 11x7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine the butter, horseradish, lemon juice, garlic powder and pepper; spread over salmon. , Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

BROWN-BUTTER SALMON WITH SCALLIONS AND LEMON

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Pat salmon dry, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Using a vegetable peeler, peel the zest of the lemon in wide strips. Cut the lemon into wedges for serving.
• In a large, ovenproof skillet, melt the butter over medium. When it's foaming, add the scallions and the lemon peel, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns brown and smells nutty, 3 to 6 minutes. (If you're using a light-colored pan, you'll see the browned bits in the skillet. If you're using a dark-colored pan, look for dark spots on the white parts of the scallions; those are browned bits of butter and a sign to remove the skillet from heat.)
• Immediately remove from heat, and add ⅓ cup of water. Stir to combine. Lay the salmon, skin side down (if there's skin), into the sauce. Cover the skillet and bake until cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes, or slightly longer if you're cooking a single, large piece. (You'll know the salmon is done when the fish flakes or an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120 degrees.)
• Eat the salmon with a spoonful of sauce and a squeeze of the lemon.

Lay salmon pieces into skillet and cook over medium high heat until browned on bottom. Slide under broiler and cook for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown on top. Keep warm in oven until ready for service.

WHOLE ROASTED SALMON WITH HORSERADISH-CAPER CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Make the salmon: Using a sharp knife, cut slits crosswise along both sides of salmon, spacing each about 2 inches apart. Stuff each slit with 1 lemon slice and 1 sprig of each herb. Rub salmon all over with oil, and season with salt and pepper. (If making a side of salmon, cut slits into flesh, and stuff with some of the lemon slices and herbs. Do not oil or season.)
• Season cavity with salt and pepper, and stuff with scallions. Transfer salmon to a parchment-lined baking sheet. (If making a side of salmon, top flesh with scallions, drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Transfer salmon to baking sheet flesh side up.) Roast for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees. Roast salmon until flesh is slightly firm to the touch and the tip of a paring knife inserted into the center comes out hot, 30 to 35 minutes. (Salmon will be medium-rare after 30 minutes. If making a side of salmon, roast for 6 to 8 minutes at 450 degrees.) Loosen fish from skin using a metal spatula.
• Meanwhile, make the horseradish-caper cream sauce: Mix together sour cream, horseradish, lemon juice, chives, and capers. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Serve salmon with sauce.
