SPICY SALMON WITH WARM MAPLE GLAZE



Spicy Salmon With Warm Maple Glaze image

Rachael Ray's recipe for Chipotle Cashew Chicken inspired me to create this dish. Her recipe calls for chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. Having none on hand, I combined some smoky and hot spices to improvise. The maple glaze gives the salmon just the right balance of sweet and spicy. It is an easy, quick recipe that could be served any night of the week or is elegant enough to be served at a dinner party. I oven-roasted mine, but it would also be excellent grilled.

CARDAMOM MAPLE SALMON

I am a salmon lover. This is a great recipe for a slightly exotic flavor of Indian inspiration with a maple twist. The flavor is exceptional, delicious, and unique. Orange zest may be added for an extra flavor twist.

FOUR-SPICE SALMON



Four-Spice Salmon image

Fish fillets can be a weeknight cook's savior. They are healthful and easy to prepare, require little time to cook and take well to all manner of spices. In this straightforward recipe, adapted from the New York chef Katy Sparks, you start with salmon fillets, liberally rub them on one side with a mixture of ground coriander, cloves, cumin and nutmeg, and then brown them in a very hot pan so the spices form a crust. Flip once, and that's it. For the best results, use fillets of equal sizes, cook them to medium rare, and use freshly ground spices. If you have only pre-ground, be sure they haven't gone stale sitting in your cabinet too long. (Yes, spices can go stale.)

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 6-ounce skinned salmon fillets
Salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon coriander seeds or ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon whole or ground cloves
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seed or ground cumin
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 tablespoons peanut oil, grape seed or other neutral oil, or clarified butter

Steps:

  • Season fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. If necessary, combine spices and grind them to a coarse powder in a coffee or spice grinder. Press some of the mixture onto the top of each fillet.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 2 or 3 minutes. Add the oil or butter and, when it shimmers, place the fillets, coated side down, in the pan. Cook about 2 to 3 minutes, or until the spice mixture forms a nicely browned crust.
  • Turn the fillets and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, or until the salmon just slightly resists when pierced with a thin-bladed knife.
