Garlic Butter Salmon in Foil

Garlic Butter Salmon in Foil

It’s difficult to remember food is fuel for your body when there are so many delicious options.

We don’t think delicious and healthy can coexist, but they can.

One important nutritional consideration is omega 3, which is good for fighting inflammation, in addition to making up cell membranes and boosting hormones that regulate blood clotting and contraction and relaxation of artery walls.

But enough serious talk. Let’s get to some good recipes.

3 tablespoons melted butter or melted ghee

1 tablespoon chopped parsley to garnish

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line a baking sheet. The piece of foil should be large enough to fold over and seal the fish.

In a small bowl, add lemon juice, garlic, and melted butter or melted ghee. Whisk everything together.

Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet. Pour the butter mixture over the salmon.

Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and red pepper flakes.

Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon. Make sure it is well sealed so that the sauce does not leak. Place the pan into the oven, and bake until cooked, about 12-16 minutes. The cooking time depends on the thickness of the fillet (internal temperature of 145 degrees).

Open the foil, and broil the fish for 2-3 minutes.

Remove from the oven. Using a spoon, pour some of the butter sauce left in the foil onto the salmon before serving. Then, garnish with parsley.

1/4 cup vegetable oil, butter or lard

Wash the herring fillets and salt them well. Mix the mustard and cream in bowl and submerge the herring in the mixture. Let this stand for at least 10 minutes, and as long as an hour.

Put the oats in a food processor or blender and buzz until mostly broken up. You want some of the oats to be flour, and some to be still recognizable as oats. Put the oats in a large bowl.

Heat the oil or butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Set out some paper towels nearby to allow the finished fish to drain. Dredge the herring in the oat mixture and fry until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on the paper towels.

Add smoked oysters, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper.

1 cup walnut halves/pieces, you can also use this recipe for candied pecans

1/4 cup white granulated sugar, (not coarse sugar)

Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat, add 1 cup walnuts, 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 Tbsp butter.

Heat over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently so your mixture doesn’t burn (especially towards the end). When the sugar mixture starts melting, stir constantly until all sugar is melted and nuts are coated.

Transfer immediately onto a sheet of parchment paper and separate the nuts right away. Using two spatulas will make this task go faster. Once the coating hardens (5-7 minutes), you can transfer them to a bowl.
