When it comes to cooking salmon, the options can seem overwhelming. Grilled, baked, poached, or smoked—the possibilities are endless, and each method offers a distinct flavor profile. But if you’re looking for a simple yet flavorful way to showcase this delicious fish, look no further than the Dan-O’s seasoning method. This article presents a salmon recipe that will make your taste buds dance, proving once and for all that "ya don’t know until ya Dan-O!"
The Magic of Dan-O’s Seasoning
Dan-O’s Seasoning is a blend of herbs and spices that never fails to elevate any dish, especially seafood. Its unique combination of garlic, onion, lemon peel, and a mix of other spices makes it a versatile seasoning that highlights the natural flavors of salmon without overwhelming them. Perfect for both novice cooks and culinary experts alike, this seasoning blend takes the guesswork out of gourmet cooking.
Ingredients
For the Salmon:
- 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
- 2 tablespoons Dan-O’s Original Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Fresh dill or parsley, for garnish (optional)
For the Side (Optional):
- 1 pound asparagus or broccoli
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
Preparing the Salmon
Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). This temperature is perfect for ensuring your salmon cooks evenly while remaining moist and flaky.
Season the salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and the juice of one lemon. Brush each fillet with the olive oil mixture and then generously sprinkle Dan-O’s Original Seasoning on both sides of the fish.
- Place on a baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil to prevent sticking. Arrange the seasoned salmon fillets skin-side down on the baking sheet.
Cooking the Salmon
Bake the salmon: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes. The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork but still has a slight translucence in the center—so be careful not to overcook it.
- Finish and garnish: Once cooked, remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Sprinkle it with fresh dill or parsley if desired, and serve with lemon wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
Making a Simple Side
While the salmon is baking, you can prepare a quick side of asparagus or broccoli:
Prepare the vegetables: Wash and trim the asparagus or broccoli.
Season: Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Roast alongside salmon: If using asparagus, add it to the baking sheet in the last 10 minutes of salmon cooking time. For broccoli, it can take a bit longer, so start roasting it separately.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the salmon alongside the roasted vegetables, allowing the delightful Dan-O’s flavor to shine through. Consider pairing this dish with a light salad or some quinoa for a complete meal.
