Rice Stuffed Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, combine rice, crab, cream cheese, butter, garlic, basil, marjoram, oregano, thyme, rosemary and celery seed., Cut a pocket horizontally in each fillet to within 1/2 in. of opposite side. Fill with stuffing mixture; secure with toothpicks. Place salmon on 2 greased 15x10x1-in. baking pans. Brush with oil; sprinkle with dill and salt., Bake 18-22 minutes or until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork. Discard toothpicks before serving.

Steps:

• 1. prepare the rice first- following the directions on the box. Usually it says to toast the rice in a couple tbsp of butter and then add 2 cups of water and simmer for about 20 minutes.
• 2. While the rice is simmering, rinse the salmon and slice it lengthwse to create a picket for the rice. Make the cut close to the skin
• 3. Stuff an overabundance of rice into the salmon and put skin side down on an oiled cookie sheet.
• 4. Add the seasonings to the salmon- salt, pepper, garlic and put either on the bottom shelf on your oven while on broil, or on the top shelf in a 500 degree oven. I cook it for about 12-15 minutes until the top starts to brown and the skin is sizzling.
• 5. After you take the fish out of the oven, squeeze 1/2 of the lemon on each piece and serve. You really don't need a side for theis either since you have the rice inside.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a skillet, melt butter and saute onion, garlic, celery and peppers until tender.
• Then add the rice and the spices and toss.
• Coat inside of fish with a light coating of mayonnaise and then stuff the cavity of the fish but don't pack the stuffing in.
• Sew it up with a needle and thread.
• Spread a little butter or a lot of mayonnaise over fish and top with 3 or 4 lemon slices.
• Wrap loosely in tin foil.
• Put it in a broiling pan and cook for 10 minutes per inch of thickness or until cooked and flakes easily with a fork.
• This can be served with additional lemon wedges or you can mix equal portions of melted butter and dry white wine for a delicious sauce.
