Sun Dried Tomato Caper Butter For Grilled Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• For the salmon: Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with the salt, pepper and dried oregano. Drizzle with the olive oil.
• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes on each side until cooked through.
• For the butter: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the butter, sun-dried tomatoes, dried oregano, salt and pepper. Blend until the sun-dried tomatoes are finely chopped. Place in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Serve the salmon with a dollop of the sun-dried tomato butter on top.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the butter, zest, herbs and garlic. Mix until everything is well mixed. Season, to taste, with salt. If using right away, keep the butter at room temperature. If making ahead, reserve in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature before using.
• Preheat grill to medium.
• Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature. Season with salt and coat with olive oil. Brush and oil the grill. Place the salmon, skin side down, on the clean, preheated grill. After 2 to 3 minutes, rotate the salmon 90 degrees to create cross-hatch grill marks on the salmon skin. Cook the salmon for another 3 to 4 minutes. As the salmon cooks it will turn from translucent orange to opaque pink.
• Turn the salmon over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. If the salmon starts to burn, or the flames flare up move the fish to a cooler part of the grill.* Remove from the grill and top with the room temperature compound butter. The butter should act as a sauce and melt over and coat the grilled salmon.
• What a delish fish!
• *Tip: It is a general rule to cook fish for 8 minutes per inch of thickness. I like salmon cooked to about medium, so I cook mine for a little less.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, parsley, capers, oil, garlic, lemon zest and juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Season the salmon on both sides with salt and pepper. Place each salmon fillet on a sheet of aluminum foil and top with a few tablespoons of the tomato mixture. Fold the foil sheets into packets. (If making this recipe in advance, store the packets on a baking sheet in the refrigerator until time to grill.)
• Place the packets on the grill and cover. Cook 10 to 12 minutes for medium.

Steps:

• Combine garlic and salt and grind into a paste. Combine the garlic, parsley, dried tomatoes and olive oil in a bowl; blending all ingredients. Chill until ready for use.
• With a sharp knife, cut two lengthwise slits in the salmon fillet, dividing the surface of the fish into thirds. Cut to the skin, but not through it.
• Preheat grill.
• Spread half the garlic mixture over the fillet and into the slits. Place the fish on grill and barbecue over a medium heat. Close the lid and grill for 15 minutes.
• Spread the remaining garlic mixture on the fillet. Close the lid, turning the temperature to high and grill 10 minutes more, or until fish flakes when tested.
• Remove the fish from the grill.

Steps:

• Butter -- Mix the butter, tomatoes, basil, and shallots together in a small bowl, cover and refrigerate. This can easily be done ahead.
• Fish and Marinade -- Remove the fish from the refrigerator and set on the counter in a small dish. Mix the olive oil, vinegar, and Italian seasoning together in a small bowl and brush on both sides of the fish. Let the fish marinate for 15-20 minutes. This will also let the fish come to room temperature before you cook it.
• Fish -- I prefer to grill this dish. Inside or outside. But you can also pan sear and even broil. Make sure to season the fish well on both sides with salt and pepper before cooking. Use whichever method you prefer. I lightly oiled my grill pan just with a non stick spray and grill on both sides until golden brown and firm to the touch. I can't give exact cooking times, because each type of fish will be different. You want it opaque, firm and flaky but just once it gets to that point. Fish should not be overcooked.
• Serve -- Top each fillet with a spoon of the chilled butter. It will melt and give the fish an amazing flavor.
• Quick cooking couscous and pan seared fresh spinach makes this a 15 minute healthy meal. And don't forget - this is great over steak, chicken or pork. The only difference is - you need to marinate it for a much longer period.
• ENJOY!

Steps:

• Sauce -- In a small saute pan on medium heat, add the wine and cook for about 3-4 minutes until it reduces by half.
• Add in the capers, lemon and butter (make sure the butter is cold), a little at a time and whisk to combine all the butter. Cook another minute or two.
• Remove from the heat and add in the parsley and sundried tomatoes.
• Serve over your favorites.

Steps:

• Melt butter in saute pan.
• Add garlic to melted butter.
• Add chicken broth, worcestershire sauce, sun-dried tomatoes & capers.
• Cook until reduced.
• Spoon over meat of your choice.

Steps:

• Soak the cedar planks in water for several hours or overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Brush the planks with olive oil.
• Cut the salmon fillet into three portions. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle parsley and sun-dried tomatoes over the top. Drizzle with salad dressing.
• Place the planks on the preheated grill and let them heat up for about 5 minutes. Place the salmon fillets on the planks. Cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Fish is done when it can be flaked with a fork. Remove quickly to avoid over cooking and drying out the fish. Serve piping hot.

Steps:

• saute onions and garlic in olive oil until fragrant in large fry pan.
• add beef, pork and salt to pan and brown over medium high heat.
• before beef and pork are completely cooked through, reduce heat to low and add plum tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, oregano, and capers with brine.
• chop sun dried tomatoes and add to pan. add any optional ingredients, if desired.
• simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.
