Categories     Fish

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup For the Sauce: Cilantro leaves and tender stems, chopped
1/4 cup Finely chopped chives
1 Garlic clove, very finely chopped
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/4 cup Olive oil
1 Kosher salt and black pepper
1.3/4 teaspoons FOR THE SALMON: round cumin
1/2 teaspoon Smoked paprika
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1.1/4 pounds Skin-on salmon fillet
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Combine cilantro, chives, garlic, vinegar and olive oil in a medium bowl. (Alternatively, pulse the ingredients in a food processor until you've reached the desired consistency.) Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
  • Roast the salmon: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine cumin, paprika and olive oil in a small bowl, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Season salmon with salt and pepper and place in a baking dish or on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle salmon with spiced olive oil mixture, transfer to the oven, and roast until fish is opaque and just cooked through, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Remove salmon from oven and spoon cilantro sauce over the top. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
