Santa Fe Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Santa Fe Salmon.
• Cut salmon into 4 servings; season with salt and pepper. Wash hands.
• Preheat large saute pan on medium-high 2-3 minutes. Combine tomatoes and mayonnaise in medium bowl.
• Coat both sides of salmon, using tongs, with tomato mixture and place in saute pan. Add remaining tomato mixture to pan and cover. Cook 3-5min until temperature reaches 145°F Cook time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillets. Serve.
• Spinach Wild Rice. (I usually use 90 sec Uncle Ben's rice).
• Place spinach and butter in microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on HIGH 3 minutes.
• Stir in rice and microwave 4 more minutes.
• Let stand 2 minutes, sprinkle with cheese, if using, and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Mix mayonnaise and Rotel. 2. Rub the Salmon with salt, pepper, and lemon. Coat both sides of Salmon with mayonnaise mixture and place in preheated skillet. Scoop the rest of the mixture on top of the fish. 3. Cook for 3-6 minutes on each side or until done.

Steps:

• Drain 1 (10 oz) can of diced Rotel tomatoes with lime juice and cilantro (drain well) ½ cup mayonnaise salt and pepper salmon to taste 1 ½ lbs salmon filets (4 boneless, skinless fillets) Drain 1 can of tomatoes with lime juice and cilantro well. Add ½ cup mayonnaise and mix together with spoon until it becomes pastelike. Lightly salt salmon and a little pepper (if desired). Coat filets with tomato mixture. Spray frying pan with Pam. Heat pan till medium hot and add salmon filets that have been covered on both sides with tomato mixture. Add remaining mixture to frying pan. Cook on medium heat 6-8 minutes, turning half-waya through cooking time. When salmon begins to flake it is done. Serve with rice, tossed salad and French Bread. It is delicious.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat. Whisk 1 Tbsp. honey, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Add 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature, and 2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill and whisk again to combine (some lemon zest may remain separate and that's okay).
• Tear off a large piece of foil according to the length and thickness of salmon (15x15" or larger) and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Place one 1 lb. boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on, arranging skin side down if skin is on, in center of foil (the skin will stick slightly to foil and brown while the fish cooks; you want this as it will add to the sauce). Spread garlic butter over fish, then drizzle 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice on top. Carefully fold one side of foil up and over fish so lemon juice stays contained, then bring other sides up to meet it and fold together to seal, leaving about a 4" opening on top for steam to escape (this will help sauce reduce a bit).
• Place foil packet on grate and grill fish until opaque throughout and firm, 16-20 minutes. Transfer packet to a cutting board and let fish rest 5 minutes.
• Carefully open foil packet and cut fish in half. Transfer to plates; pour juices from packet over. Drizzle fish with remaining 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, dividing evenly, and top with more finely chopped dill.
