Microwaved Steamed Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Pat the fish dry with kitchen paper then cut into very big pieces. Put in a heatproof dish and evenly scatter with the ginger. Wrap tightly in cling film. Can be prepared to here up to 2-3 hours ahead, chill. Put the plate of fish into the microwave and cook for 3-5 minutes (depending on its thickness and how you like your fish cooked) on full power.
• Remove the plate of cooked fish. Wait one minute and pour off any excess liquid that may have accumulated on the plate, then scatter the spring onions on the fish, together with the light and dark soy sauces.
• Heat the two oils together in a small saucepan until very hot, then pour over the top of the fish. Scatter with a handful of coriander sprigs and serve at once.

Steps:

• Spread 1tsp butter over each salmon filet. Sprinkle 1tsp lemon pepper on top.
• Place in microwave-safe dish. Add water or white wine. Cover with plastic wrap.
• Cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until fish is not pink and is flaky. (Adjust time according to thickness of salmon filet and your oven and quantity being prepared.).

Steps:

• Combine butter, wine, lemon juice, dill, sugar, salt, and black pepper together in a microwave-safe casserole dish; place cover on dish.
• Microwave butter mixture until butter is melted, 45 to 60 seconds. Add salmon, skin-side up, to butter mixture and place cover on dish. Microwave until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 6 minutes.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and a second rack in the upper third. Heat the oven to between 225 and 275 degrees. Grease a thin sheet pan with olive oil.
• Carefully place a frying pan of just-boiled water on the lower oven rack. Arrange the salmon on the prepared sheet pan, season generously with salt and pepper, and place on the upper oven rack. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 110 degrees for rare, 115 degrees for medium-rare, or 125 degrees for medium. This should take 10 to 12 minutes for 5-ounce fillets or 20 to 25 minutes for a 2 1/2-pound fillet. (The color of the salmon will not turn dull, and the texture will be very juicy.)
• Transfer the salmon to a platter or one or more individual plates and season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Sprinkle with chives, if using, and serve.

Steps:

• Thaw filet in refrigerator for several hours, or immerse package in cold water for 30 minutes.
• Place filet in small microwave casserole dish.
• Sprinkle with lemon pepper seasoning.
• Top with butter or margarine.
• Cover casserole and place in microwave.
• Cook on High for 3- 4 minutes.
• Repeat for remaining filets.
