Description

Salmon is remarkably versatile, but this herb-crusted salmon may just become your new favorite cooking method. It's quick and easy, tastes great, but it's elegant enough to serve to guests.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a bowl, combine first 8 ingredients. Toss with melted butter.
  2. Place salmon in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray, skin side down. Top with crumb mixture, patting gently. Bake until golden brown and fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 12-15 minutes.

Boiled Lettuce with Garlic & Oyster Sauce

This recipe, ultimately, is a simple one. Which is to say that the details really make a difference. First, is the lettuce. Properly cooked lettuce should still be brilliantly green with a crisp stem and slippery, silky leaves, which can only be achieved if blanched briefly in a large amount of salted water. Without enough water, the greens will take too long to come to temperature and then turn yellow. Without salt, the greens will taste bland.
