Cumin Dusted Salmon Fillets Recipes

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Combine cilantro, chives, garlic, vinegar and olive oil in a medium bowl. (Alternatively, pulse the ingredients in a food processor until you've reached the desired consistency.) Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• Roast the salmon: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine cumin, paprika and olive oil in a small bowl, and season with salt and pepper.
• Season salmon with salt and pepper and place in a baking dish or on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle salmon with spiced olive oil mixture, transfer to the oven, and roast until fish is opaque and just cooked through, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Remove salmon from oven and spoon cilantro sauce over the top. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F.
• Make rice:
• Bring water to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan, then add rice, onion, garlic, bay leaf, salt, and pepper to taste. Return to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 15 to 17 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Stir in herbs just before serving.
• Cook fish while rice is cooking:
• Pat fillets dry and sprinkle with cumin and salt and pepper to taste on both sides. Heat oil in a well-seasoned 10-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking, then sear fillets until browned on 1 side, about 5 minutes. Turn fillets over and put skillet in oven. Roast fillets in upper third of oven until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Make sauce while rice is standing:
• Whisk together broth, juice, molasses, and cornstarch in a small skillet and simmer, whisking, until slightly thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Halve each fillet crosswise and serve over rice. Spoon sauce over and around fish.

Steps:

• Combine first 4 ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle both sides of fish with spice mixture.
• Preheat the oven to 450. Place fillets in a tray sprayed with Pam. Cook fillets for 12 - 15 minutes or until done.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the salmon fillets with cumin, salt and pepper and place in the hot pan. Sear on one side for 3 minutes, and then carefully flip and continue to cook until they are just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes more. Keep warm while you prepare the Greens with Cumin Dressing.
• Serve with the freshly dressed greens on the side.
• Put the shallots in a small glass bowl and add the vinegar, cumin, mustard, honey, salt and pepper and whisk well to combine. Slowly add the oil and whisk until smooth. Toss some of the dressing with the greens, cilantro and tomatoes and serve immediately. Store any extra dressing in an airtight jar in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the dill, chile powder, coriander, cumin, along with a generous pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Transfer half of the spice mixture to a medium bowl and stir in the mustard to make a paste.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir the toasted garlic butter into the paste.
• Season the salmon fillets with salt and the dry spice blend on both sides.
• Wipe out the large skillet. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the olive oil in the large skillet over medium-high heat.
• When the oil shimmers, add the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Add 1 tablespoon butter and about half of the lemon wedges. Cook, continuously spooning the pan liquid over the fillets, until the skin is crispy, about 4 minutes. You'll see the color changing as the salmon cooks from the bottom.
• Flip the salmon, add 1 tablespoon butter, spread the paste on the skin with a rubber spatula and cook, continuously spooning the pan liquid over the fillets, until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Squeeze the remaining half of the lemon wedges over the fillets. Transfer the fillets to a plate and spoon over the sauce. Garnish with fresh dill and serve with lemon wedges. Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving if desired.

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients and rub evenly over both sides of salmon.
• Place salmon on grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 4 minutes on each side, or until fish flakes when tested.
