Four Spice Salmon Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, chile powder, salt and pepper. Put the salmon on the baking sheet. Evenly distribute the sugar-spice mixture over the top of the fillets.
• Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on thickness and desired doneness.

Steps:

• 1. 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. 2. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 2 to 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. 3. 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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat fillets with olive oil and place skin-side down in large baking dish. Sprinkle fillets with five-spice powder, sugar, lime peel, lime juice, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper.
• Bake, uncovered, 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
• Meanwhile, heat sesame oil in large nonstick skillet. Add mushrooms and ginger; cook and stir until mushrooms are soft. Stir in bok choy and cook until heated through. Serve salmon over mushroom-bok choy mixture.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the first 10 ingredients. Rub fillets with seasoning mixture; drizzle with oil., Place salmon on a lightly oiled rack, skin side up. Grill, covered, over high heat or broil 3-4 in. from heat 5 minutes. Turn; grill 4-6 minutes longer or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork.

Steps:

• Put the salmon in a bowl, pour over the lime juice and leave the salmon to 'cure' for 5 mins. Meanwhile, mix all the spices together with the sugar. Lift the salmon out of the lime juice and roll in the spices so it's completely coated.
• Heat grill to high. Grease a baking tray, then sit the salmon, flesh-side up, on the tray. Grill for 5 mins, until the salmon is cooked through and the edges are starting to blacken. While the salmon is cooking, gently mix all the salsa ingredients together with the roughly chopped coriander. When the fish is cooked, serve with the salsa, some rice and the coriander sprigs.

Steps:

• Put salmon skin side down on large sheet of heavy-duty foil and run your hand lightly up the middle of it, lengthwise. If you feel some prickly little bones, pull them out with a clean tweezer or small pliers.
• Mix cumin, coriander, salt, olive oil and all but one tablespoon lemon juice together and brush over salmon. Allow to marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes. Transfer salmon on foil to broiling pan.
• Preheat oven broiler to very hot. Position the oven rack so the salmon is no farther than four inches from source of heat.
• Broil salmon three to five minutes, watching carefully, until top is attractively browned and fish is slightly undercooked in the middle. If you like salmon done this way, remove from oven and transfer to serving platter. Otherwise, shut off broiler and leave salmon in hot oven another three to five minutes, to desired degree of doneness.
• Sprinkle with the remaining lemon juice, black pepper to taste and herbs, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix the tamarind paste with the lime, sugar, salt, chilli powder, turmeric, garlic and ginger. Add enough water - you won't need much - to make sufficient marinade to coat the four pieces of fish. Turn the salmon over in the marinade, making sure it gets well coated, cover and put in the fridge for 1 hr (or 30 mins is fine if you're in a rush).
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan and add the chillies. Fry over a medium heat for 30-40 secs, then add the salmon fillets. Brown the fillets on each side (including the skin), then transfer them to a roasting tin. Spoon some of the chilli oil from the pan over them. Bake in the oven for 12 mins, or until the fish is cooked right through to the centre (check with the tip of a knife). Serve with rice, lime wedges and an Indian chutney.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Mix olive oil, brown sugar, garlic, smoked paprika, paprika, and chile powder together in a bowl. Spread mixture over salmon fillets. Squeeze lemon juice on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 13 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• In a 2-quart dish, combine the lime peel, lime juice, 1 teaspoon of the oil, ginger, five-spice powder, and sugar substitute. Add the salmon and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• In a 3-quart microwavable dish, combine spinach, garlic, and remaining 1 teaspoon oil, tossing gently. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 2 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted. Drain and keep warm.
• Lightly oil a grill rack. Preheat the grill to medium-high.
• Remove the salmon from the marinade and place on the grill rack. Brush the salmon with additional marinade. Close the grill cover and cook for 4 minutes. Open the grill cover, turn the salmon, and brush with marinade. Close the cover and cook for 4 minutes longer, or until the salmon flakes easily. Discard any remaining marinade.
• To serve, evenly divide the spinach among 4 serving plates and center the salmon on the spinach beds.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients except salmon; brush over salmon., Place salmon, skin side down, on an oiled grill rack or on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 10-15 minutes.
