Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 lemon, juiced and zested
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pound mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, chopped dill, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the dill butter mixture evenly over the top of each fillet.
- Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- While the salmon is baking, prepare the roasted vegetables. In a large bowl, toss the mixed vegetables with olive oil, garlic powder, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables on a separate baking sheet and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Once the salmon and vegetables are done, remove them from the oven. Serve the baked salmon with a side of the roasted vegetables and enjoy!
Baked Salmon with Dill Butter is a classic dish that has been enjoyed for centuries. The combination of tender, flaky salmon and the bright, fresh flavor of dill butter is a match made in culinary heaven. This dish has its roots in Scandinavian cuisine, where salmon is abundant and dill is a popular herb. Over time, it has become a staple in many seafood restaurants around the world. One renowned chef known for his exceptional Baked Salmon with Dill Butter is Magnus Nilsson, who hails from Sweden. His meticulous attention to detail and use of the freshest ingredients elevate this dish to new heights. The dish is often served with a side of roasted vegetables, adding a delightful contrast of textures and flavors. The best version of this dish can be found in coastal regions where salmon is freshly caught and dill grows abundantly. The key to getting this dish right lies in the quality of the salmon and the freshness of the dill. The salmon should be perfectly cooked, with a tender, flaky texture, and the dill butter should be rich and aromatic. For a unique twist on this classic dish, some chefs opt to grill the salmon instead of baking it, imparting a smoky flavor that complements the dill butter beautifully. Regardless of the cooking method, Baked Salmon with Dill Butter remains a timeless favorite that continues to delight seafood lovers around the world.
