Blackened Country French Salmon Fillets Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients except for fish.
• Lay the fillets, skin side down in baking pan.
• Pour marinade over fish and allow to sit for ten minutes.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes in 350 oven, basting regularly.
• Move fish to just under the broiler and allow to blacken surface of fish for a few minutes.
• Add capers if desired, baste again, and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix paprika, cayenne pepper, onion powder, salt, white pepper, black pepper, thyme, basil and oregano.
• Brush salmon fillets EVOO until moist, and sprinkle evenly with the cayenne pepper mixture. Mist with EVOO spray (I use Garlic flavored EVOO spray).
• In a large, heavy skillet over high heat, cook salmon, until blackened, 2 to 5 minutes. Turn fillets, brush with remaining EVOO , and continue cooking until blackened and fish is easily flaked with a fork.
• At this point, I bake at 400 for 10 minutes or until desired doneness (I like mine well done). If you don't like yours well done, skip the baking stage.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix the paprika, oregano, cayenne, sugar, lime zest, garlic and oil in a bowl with a good pinch of salt. Toss the peppers, onions and beans with half of the spice paste in a large roasting tin, then cook in the oven for 25 mins.
• Remove from the oven and give the veg and beans a good mix. Lay the salmon on top, skin-side down, then brush over the remaining spice paste. Bake for a further 25 mins, until the salmon is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, for the salsa, halve, stone and finely chop the avocados and mango. Mix with the lime juice, chilli, coriander and some salt. Serve the salmon, veg and beans with the salsa and lime wedges for squeezing over.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix paprika, cayenne pepper, onion powder, salt, white pepper, black pepper, thyme, basil and oregano.
• Brush salmon fillets on both sides with 1/4 cup butter, and sprinkle evenly with the cayenne pepper mixture. Drizzle one side of each fillet with 1/2 remaining butter.
• In a large, heavy skillet over high heat, cook salmon, butter side down, until blackened, 2 to 5 minutes. Turn fillets, drizzle with remaining butter, and continue cooking until blackened and fish is easily flaked with a fork.

Steps:

• Set salmon fillets on a plate with flesh-sides up; brush the tops with melted butter.
• Combine paprika, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, black pepper, white pepper, basil, and thyme for seasoning in a small bowl. Sprinkle seasoning evenly over top of the salmon fillets, then lightly press the spices down onto the fish.
• Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot, place salmon, flesh-side down, into the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then carefully flip. Continue to cook until salmon flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 6 more minutes. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Toss with olive oil to keep it from sticking together.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, bell peppers, onion, and garlic; saute until vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove vegetable mixture from the pan and add it to the bowl with the linguine.
• Drain the excess liquid from the saucepan. Add remaining 6 tablespoons butter to the pan and reduce heat to medium. Stir in half-and-half, Cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thick and bubbly, about 10 minutes. Gradually stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and sauce has thickened.
• Pour sauce over the linguine and vegetable mixture. Add tomatoes and toss to combine.
• Serve pasta in bowls topped with blackened salmon, removing the skin, if desired. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set an oven rack in the lower-middle position.
• Prepare the salmon: In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, dry mustard, and oregano and set aside. Use 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to grease a sheet pan. Place the salmon, skin-side down, on a flat surface and season it with salt. Drizzle the salmon with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Transfer the spice mixture to a small fine-mesh sieve or strainer and sift an even layer of the spices over the salmon. Arrange the fillets skin-side down on the prepared sheet pan, leaving space between them.
• Cook the salmon: Place the pan on the lower-middle rack and roast for 10 to 12 minutes for medium to medium-rare salmon. (For well-done fish, leave it in the oven for an additional 5 to 8 minutes.) Remove the pan from the oven and drizzle the honey over the fish. Then sprinkle all of the lime zest and juice over the fish.
• While the salmon roasts, cook the spinach: Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. "Spear" the garlic clove on the tines of a fork. When the oil is hot and begins to smoke lightly, add the spinach and cook in the oil, stirring with the fork, 30 seconds. By stirring the spinach with the garlic clove on the end of the fork, it imparts a garlic flavor without overwhelming the spinach. Stir in salt and black pepper and remove the skillet from the heat. Stir until the spinach loses half its volume. Sprinkle with the red wine vinegar. Serve immediately with the salmon.
