Herb Butter Salmon Recipe

2012-05-30T08:28:00.001-07:00

Well, i made some salmon steak at home the past two days, and here i'm gonna share the recipe with the others, of all three different types of flavors for salmon steak.

1st flavor :

Herb Butter Salmon (1 serving)

- 1 tbsp Tarragon, 1 tbsp Chives, 1 ½ tbsp Parsley, 1 tsbp Dijon Mustard, Butter ¼ cup, 1 tbsp of green spring onion, ground black pepper, finely chopped red onions (shallots) x 1 pcs & garlic x 2 cloves.

- Paste butter on the salmon and grill for 4-5 minutes.

n Melt the butter, add and mixed well the herbs mentioned above including the mustard, and other ingredients and mix well. After mixing, can apply it on the fish and leave it for about 30 minutes.

Next you could either grill the fish 180 - 200 degree celcius or pan fry it until its cooked , no oil is needed as there is already butter on it. Its best to not make it too dry, what i did was to pan fry it for roughly about 3-5 mins and i placed it in the oven for a little while more about 2-3mins before serving.

This is a great and healthy dish, with omega 3 oils found in salmon and fatty acids which are good for the body & brain, i garnished the plate with some vegetables; asparagus too.

For the asparagus, i apply some oil on it before placing it on the pan & then oven, very quickly i removed them, say for both total time of 2mins. As i do not want to burn up the good nutrients inside it with high heat. Therefore, i ate it half cooked and half raw, quite crunchy and it tasted good.

This is the herb butter, though the appearance might not be too beautiful, but it tasted good with the herbs in it.

The herbs and ingredients for the salmon.

This is the looks of the butter herb before application onto the salmon.
