Grilled Salmon Fillet

The post 55 Easy Salmon Recipes Anyone Can Make In a Hurry appeared first on Taste of Home.

Once you know how to cook pan-seared salmon on the stovetop, you can dress the fish up in dozens of different ways. Keep reading to see some of our best ideas. (And if you’re looking for something deep-fried instead, this guide explains how to fry fish.)

How to Pan-Fry Salmon

Ingredients

• 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1: Season the fish

Pat both sides of the salmon with paper towels to remove moisture, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Step 2: Heat the pan

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot and the oil shimmers, add salmon skin side up and cook 4 minutes.

Step 3: Flip the salmon

Turn fish and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3-4 minutes longer. For easy turning, use a nice, wide spatula.

Step 4: Serve it up!

Pan-seared salmon is a stellar accompaniment for all kinds of vegetables. The salmon would be particularly good with crisp, lightly cooked veggies such as green beans, bell peppers, or zucchini. It’s also a perfect partner for hearty salads. Pair it with any of our favorite sides for fried fish.

Salmon is great with potatoes, pasta, Asian noodles and rice, too. Have a little extra time? Make risotto to serve on the side.

Tips for Pan-Frying Salmon

• If you want this recipe to be completely no-fail, cook the salmon in a seasoned cast-iron pan or a nonstick pan. No matter what pan you’re using, make sure the oil is nice and hot before you add the salmon, and don’t turn it until it releases easily from the pan.
• Not feeling confident about your fish cookery? Here are the secrets to cooking fish properly!
• Pan-seared salmon is practically begging for a delicious sauce. It would be great with something light and citrus-y, like the lemon sauce that goes with chicken piccata. Or serve the salmon with this creamy dill dip.
• If you like meal-prepping, this salmon can be refrigerated once cooked and used cold. Use salmon in place of tuna in this Niçoise salad, sub it for the canned fish in salmon patties or serve it over sesame noodles.

Atlantic Salmon

Also known as sea run salmon, kelts or black salmon, there are three types of wild Atlantic salmon: North American, European and Baltic. Wild North American salmon isn’t commercially fished because of their endangered status. If you’re buying Atlantic salmon in the United States, expect it to be farmed. This fish has a mild flavor and light pink color, and it works really well in any of our easy salmon recipes.

But have you ever wondered about the skin? Before you remove it, consider saving it for a recipe all its own.

Can You Eat Salmon Skin?

Yes, you can eat salmon skin. In fact, when cooked properly, salmon skin has a crispy, salty bite.

However, before chowing down, it’s important to take a few precautions. Depending on where your fish came from, it may contain environmental toxins. Salmon that live in contaminated water absorb toxins into their skin. This can make the skin unsafe to eat. In fact, a study in PLoS One found that a diet high in farmed salmon may raise the risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

If you’d like to try eating salmon skin, stick with wild-caught salmon. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the most contaminated fish is farmed from the Atlantic Ocean. Wild-caught salmon from the Atlantic Ocean is slightly better. For the safest fish, look for salmon that was wild-caught in the Pacific Ocean.

Here are more tips on how to buy salmon.

Is Salmon Skin Good for You?

Salmon skin is rich in nutrients that have been linked to some serious health benefits. Salmon has a high level of omega-3 fatty acids. These good fats can lower the risk of heart disease and other chronic conditions.

Salmon skin is especially high in omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon live in cold ocean water, and their skin needs a high concentration of fat to keep them warm.

A study in Marine Drugs found that eating salmon skin may help to treat type 2 diabetes and improve wound healing. Eating a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids may also help to prevent certain types of cancer.

How Do I Remove Salmon Skin?

Not ready to add salmon skin to your dinner rotation? No worries; it’s easy to remove from your fish before eating. To remove the skin from raw salmon, place your fillet on a cutting board with the skin side down. Press down on the fillet while placing the knife between the skin and the flesh. Then slide the knife carefully to remove the skin.

You may find that it’s easier to remove salmon skin from cooked fish. Start by grilling or baking salmon. Place your cooked fish on a clean cutting board and slide a sharp knife or spatula between the skin and flesh. Once you’ve removed the skin, season your fish and enjoy.

How to Cook Salmon Skin

Cooking salmon skin may sound tricky but it’s one of the easiest salmon recipes out there. There are just a few tips to keep in mind when making this crispy, salty snack.

If you’ve ever cooked salmon with the skin on, you know that the skin can quickly become soggy or rubbery. This is usually an issue when boiling or steaming the fish. Feel free to keep the skin on when you grill salmon because it will protect the flesh from burning.

One way to cook salmon skin is to make salmon bacon. Start by removing the skin from the fish and cutting it into one-inch strips. Then heat some cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, place your salmon skin strips in the skillet and turn them frequently to prevent burning. Once they’re crispy, remove the strips and place them on a paper towel-lined plate. Season with a little salt and pepper.

Serve your salmon bacon with a side dish for salmon and wow your guests.

Dried Pulses

Beans and lentils are classic kitchen staples. However, many people opt to buy canned varieties. While the cans are convenient, dried pulses are much more cost-effective and still deliver the same high protein and fiber content. With just a little time management to let them soak, you’ll be rewarded with consistent savings at the register.

How to Make the TikTok Salmon Bowl

This TikTok salmon bowl comes courtesy of creator @emilymariko. To make her popular dish, you’ll need two main ingredients, salmon and rice, and they don’t even have to be made to order. Emily uses leftovers—and I’ll never turn down a good leftovers repurposing—but fresh ingredients will also do the trick.

In her video, she shreds the cooked salmon with a fork, then tops that with a big scoop of cooked white rice. Emily’s method for heating up the rice is genius! She places an ice cube in the middle of the rice, covers it with a sheet of parchment paper, presses her hand over the parchment to seal it down and then microwaves it.

After she pulls the salmon and rice from the microwave she adds soy sauce, sriracha and Japanese mayo. Emily finishes this TikTok salmon bowl with slices of avocado, a little bowl of kimchi and some seaweed snacks. Lets give it a go!

Ingredients

• 1-2 cooked salmon fillets, about 4 ounces each
• 2 cups cooked white rice
• 1 ice cube
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• drizzle of kewpie
• drizzle of sriracha
• 1/2 avocado, sliced
• kimchi
• roasted seaweed strips
• sesame seeds, optional

Directions

Step 1: Flake salmon

Use a fork to flake the cooked salmon until it’s fluffy and there are no more big chunks.

Step 2: Reheat in the microwave

Add the rice over the flaked salmon, then place an ice cube in the middle of the rice. Cover with parchment paper so the steam won’t escape during heating. Microwave on high for about 2 minutes.

Remove from the microwave and discard the parchment.

Step 3: Mix and top

Add the soy sauce to the salmon and rice and mix until it’s all fully incorporated. Drizzle zigzags of sriracha and mayo on top. Finish with the slices of avocado, kimchi and a sprinkle of sesame seeds if you’d like.

What’s with the Ice Cube?

Leftover rice tends to build a crunchy outer shell after a day or two, but reheating rice with water actually helps recreate the signature fluff. This is due to the power of steam, a hot and extremely effective way of cooking.

The ice cube mimics the same process, and the parchment paper helps to keep the steam circling continuously. The power of science truly is amazing. Almost as amazing as the TikTok salmon bowl!

Tips for Making the TikTok Salmon Bowl

Do you have to use leftover salmon and rice?

You definitely do not need to use leftover salmon and rice for this dish, though it does make the recipe exceptionally fast and easy! But this dish is delicious enough to warrant making both the salmon and rice specifically for it.

Can I add other toppings?

Absolutely! You can top this dish according to your tastes—add some sesame ginger cucumbers or chopped scallions. And I love to use black sesame seeds in addition to white, for the color contrast.

What if I don’t have parchment paper?

You can create the same effect with a bowl placed on top of the rice to capture the steam. Just make sure there are no big holes so it locks in the moisture.
