Salmon Recipes
Here are some ideas for using some of that great Alaskan Salmon:
Amy Nicholson’s Famous Salmon Marinade
- 1 oz. Green Label Jack Daniels
- 2 Tbs. brown sugar
- 1/2 C. soy sauce
- Fresh black pepper
- 1 crushed garlic clove
- 1 lb. salmon
Combine all ingredients together. Soak fish overnight. Drain marinade and grill fish.
Basic Grilled Salmon
- 1.5 lbs. salmon fillets
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- Stir together soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and vegetable oil until sugar is dissolved. Place fish in resealable plastic bag. Add marinade. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, turning to coat evenly.
- Lightly oil grill. Preheat to medium heat. Place fillets on grill, discarding leftover marinade. (You can also place fillets on aluminum foil.) Cool salmon 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Salmon with Lemon and Dill
- 1 lb. salmon fillets
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 5 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp dried dill week
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease medium baking dish.
- Place salmon in the baking dish. Mix melted butter and lemon juice in small bowl and drizzle over the salmon. Season with dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Bake 25 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Salmon Florentine
- 2 salmon fillets (approximately 4 oz. each)
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 white onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced, divided
- 1 cup semi-dry white wine
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 cups chopped spinach
- Melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and 1 clove of minced garlic. Cook and stir until softened, breaking onion into rings, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add salmon and cook until salmon is about 1/4-cooked, about 2 minutes.
- Pour wine and cream over salmon and cook, stirring lightly and flipping salmon halfway through, until liquid is reduced by half and salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 5 to 10 minutes.
- Melt 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir remaining clove of garlic until fragrant and golden, about 1 to 3 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Place spinach on 2 serving plates, making a well in the center of each. Arrange salmon fillets in the center of the well and pour sauce over each.
