Boom: Salmon Recipe

Add a bit of Kale to the mix and you've got yourself a nice little dinner

Be sure to add this to the F/DB recipe book. You seem to have this down to a science.

Slice, dip in soy sauce, eat.

I don't know if this works with a whole filet, but I usually get single serve portions.

Season the flesh side with whatever you like....I usually do (never any exact measurements):

Salt
Pepper
Dried Dill
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
Cayenne (just a light sprinkle)

Then I put the oven on 450 and get a cast iron skillet screaming hot. Put a little olive oil in and sear flesh side down for 1 minute. Then flip to skin side down, pop in a couple knobs of butter, and put in the oven for 5-7 minutes depending on thickness.

Never fails me.

I used to like putting a panko crust on it. Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Mix the pankco breadcrumbs with some more seasoning and olive oil. I'd usually need some sort of honey mustard or mayo as an adhesive to get the crumbs to stick. Then put in the oven on 400 for about 10 minutes, just enough to brown the breadcrumbs.

Or just google panko crusted Salmon for an overload of different recipes.

One of my favorite ways to eat it in the summer is grilled then topped with a cucumber/dill/yogurt sauce. I've been craving it, and will probably do some this weekend. Grilling it on a cedar plank produces a good flavor. A dijon mustard based marinade is also very good on salmon. You could always smoke some and eat it with cream cheese, capers, and red onions on toast points. Sorry, still at work so I don't have any recipes with me, but google should have plenty of the ones I mentioned.

If you have a quality piece of wild salmon, drenching the fish with marinades and dressings only detracts from the flavor of the salmon.

I use Paul Prudhomme's Meat Magic (not Seafood Magic) on salmon and either pan sear with olive oil or grill for four minutes on each side, so that the fish comes out medium rare.

I usually indirect grill/smoke with charcoal and cherry wood chips. I like this method because the fish is cooked, yet the cherry smoke takes some of the salmon bite out of it. takes about 20 minutes.

Was going to say gravlax too
