Grilled Cajun Salmon With Scallion-Cilantro Sauce
Donāt be nervous about grilling fishāsalmon steaks hold up well, and the method lends a smoky flavor thatās amplified by a Cajun spice blend. Also grill scallions for a savory sauce, and some potatoes for a side: Thread the spuds onto skewers to make them easy to manage on the grill!
Salmon Tacos With Avocado Sauce
In this twist on fish tacos, which are often fried, seasoned salmon gets a char under the broiler. Pineapple gets broiled, too, for a juicy and sweet topping. Weāve lightened up the avocado crema, swapping in Greek yogurt for sour cream, which boosts the protein but cuts the fat.
Slow-Roasted Salmon, Tomatoes, and Olives With Couscous
Roasting tomatoes, olives, capers, and salmon together at a low heat keeps the fish evenly cooked and infuses the dish with Mediterranean flavors. (It also makes this dinner mostly hands-off!) And, your body can absorb the antioxidants from cooked tomatoes more easily than from raw ones.
Poached Salmon, Strawberry, and Watercress Salad
Bright and peppery watercress, sweet strawberries, and mildly licorice-flavored fennel come together to create a light salad thatās high in collagen-stimulating, immune-boosting, and free-radical-fighting vitamin C. The salmon on top is poached, a cooking method that makes it tender and moist.
Smoked SalmonāSourdough Tartines
This tasty spread is based on salmon rillettesāa French preparation thatās typically full of butter (which weāve ditched) and crĆØme fraĆche (which weāve replaced with a little mayonnaise and some Greek yogurt). It gets tons of flavor from hot-smoked as well as roasted salmon and texture from crunchy, fresh toppings, and makes a great breakfast or lunchā¦or even dinner.
Miso Salmon and Bok Choy in Parchment
Just a few spoonfuls of salty, funky, sweet miso brings complex, layered flavor to the soy-ginger sauce, as well as gut-healthy probiotics. Cook the salmon, along with nutrient-rich bok choyāfull of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiberāin a parchment-paper pouch, which lets them gently steam in the oven for tender, flaky fish every time.
