Crispy Skin Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a saute pan. Place the salmon, skin-side down, in the pan and cook (without moving the fish) until the skin is crispy, about 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat, turn the salmon, and continue to cook for another 3 to 4 minutes.
• 2. Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon oil in another saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, shallots, and leek; saute for 3 to 5 minutes until the leak begins to soften.
• 3. Add the cannellini beans and the wine; bring to a gentle simmer. Add the butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• RICE:.
• Place the rice and oil in a rice cooker.
• Mix well. Add in the water, lime juice and garlic clove.
• Cook according to manufacturer's instructions.
• After cooking, let rice sit for 20 minutes and stir in cilantro.
• EDAMAME:.
• Heat the olive oil to the smoking point in a pan.
• Add in the edamame and let it sit for 1 minute.
• Add in the shallots and garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• SALMON:.
• Heat the oil to just smoking in a pan.
• Season the flesh side of salmon with salt and pepper.
• Place the filet in he pan skin down.
• Let it cook for 5 minutes. You should see the oil sizzling and the flesh cooking from the bottom up.
• When the flesh looks like it has cooked about half the way up, flip the fish over and cook for 20 seconds.
• Remove.
• CHIMICHURI SAUCE:.
• Combine ingredients together and use as a garnish on meats, poultry and fish.

Steps:

• Set a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add olive oil and butter. When butter melts, swirl the skillet to combine oil and butter.
• Sprinkle salmon fillet with Greek seasoning. Carefully add fillet to skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover skillet with a tempered glass lid and cook until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 12 minutes.
• Add pecans to the skillet and toast lightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove salmon from skillet and serve immediately topped with pecans.

Steps:

• Whisk ginger, miso, honey, vinegar, oil, and 1 Tbsp. water in a small bowl to combine; set sauce aside.
• Heat a dry small skillet over medium. Toast sesame seeds, tossing, until golden and slightly fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; let cool.
• Lightly season salmon all over with salt. Place skin side down in an unheated cast-iron skillet. Set skillet over medium heat and cook, undisturbed, 5 minutes. Press down lightly on salmon with a fish spatula to ensure all of the skin is making contact with the pan and continue to cook until flesh is opaque most of the way through (the top will still be translucent) and skin is crisp, about 5 minutes longer.
• Using spatula, gently turn fillets over, then remove pan from heat. Continue to cook fish in residual heat left in pan until just barely cooked through, 1-3 minutes more, depending on thickness.
• Spoon reserved sauce onto plates. Scoop some rice on top and set fillets, skin side up, on rice. Scatter scallions over and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

Steps:

• In a small bowl mix together all marinade ingredients. Be sure to reserving 1/2 cup of the water to use during the cooking process. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to broil with oven rack placed in the upper center position. Prepare a baking sheet by layering 2 strips of foil to cover the bottom of pan, then place an non-coated cooling rack over that.
• Brush skin side of salmon with olive oil (this will help to insure skin doesn't stick and become extra crispy), place fillets about 1-2 inches apart on the cooling rack in the center of backing sheet. Reserve half of marinade for glazing. Brush tops and sides of the salmon fillets with marinade. Let sit for 5-6 minutes.
• Broil, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes (or until fish flakes easily with a fork). Because you're broiling, it will cook quickly. Glaze OFTEN with reserved marinade to get a super sweet and sticky coating. Pour reserved water in bottom of pan half way through cooking time (helps finish cooking the fish and also keeps it moist and flaky).
• I like to serve mine with ginger lime shrimp and a roasted veggie like asparagus :).
