Spicy Salmon Melt Recipes

Steps:

• Coat your grill or a grill pan with cooking spray and preheat over medium heat. While the grill is heating, combine the brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Brush each salmon fillet with 1/2 teaspoon of the oil, then rub each fillet with about 1/2 tablespoon of the spice mixture.
• Grill the salmon, flesh side down, until charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook another 5 to 6 minutes for medium doneness. For well done fish, cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a platter and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Cut the tomatoes into 8 slices, 1/4 to 1/3 inch thick. Place in a shallow baking dish or on a small sheet pan. Season the tomato slices with salt and pepper, drizzle with the olive oil and put a thyme sprig on top of each. Bake until very tender and lightly browned around the edges, 30 to 35 minutes. Discard the thyme and set the tomatoes aside; keep the oven on.
• Meanwhile, combine the salmon, shallot, celery, mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, lemon juice and all but 2 tablespoons of the scallion greens in a medium bowl. Flake the salmon and stir until combined. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Arrange the toasted English muffin halves on a foil- or parchment-lined baking sheet. Top with the salmon mixture (about a heaping 1/4 cup per muffin half). Top each with a slice of cheese and a roasted tomato slice and bake until the cheese is just melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Top with the reserved scallion greens.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Combine the first six ingredients; rub over salmon. Place in an 11x7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, until fish flakes easily with a fork, 15-20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them in an ovenproof baking dish large enough to hold them without crowding.
• In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, salt, mustard powder, paprika, chili powder, pepper and garlic powder; mix well with a fork.
• Sprinkle the spice rub over the fillets, then turn them, pressing gently, to coat all sides with the rub. Brush the fillets all over with the olive oil.
• Roast the salmon for 12 to 14 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until it flakes easily and is just cooked in the center. Let the salmon rest for 5 minutes, then sprinkle lightly with salt and serve.
