Pesto Salmon 青酱三文鱼/鲑鱼

With salmon in season, I have been making roasted salmon quite regularly. It is an easy and healthy meal to put together - roast the salmon and steam some vegetables.<br /><br />I usually marinate the salmon with spices - curry powder, ground turmeric, ground coriander, cumin, and black pepper. But since there is <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2014/08/basil-walnut-pesto.html">homemade pesto</a> available, why not use it as the marinade?<br /><img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3851/14725007610_21dd064022_z.jpg" /><br /><br />Today, we will have <b>Pesto Salmon</b>, packed with Omega-3s as found in the fish itself and the <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2014/08/basil-walnut-pesto.html">walnuts </a>in the <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2014/08/basil-walnut-pesto.html">pesto</a>. Such a fuss-free recipe is a perfect weekday savior, as 30 minutes or less is what it takes for this healthy and delicious dish. It is also a good way to give salmon a quick make-over when the regular <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2012/06/salmon-zucchini-carrots-in-parchment-en.html">grilled/oven-roasted salmon</a> occasionally becomes boring.<br /><img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3919/14725032579_09ef13e8c4_z.jpg" /> <br /><br /><a name="more"></a>I usually like to prepare another easy vegetable side such as steamed/roasted broccoli, roasted zucchini and bell peppers, to pair with the main protein entree.<br /><img src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5593/14725123047_212fe9ae68_z.jpg" />  <br /><br /><iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ss&ref=ss_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=anestofo-20&marketplace=amazon&region=US&placement=B001L5TVGW&asins=B001L5TVGW&linkId=5NT35KF2GSUQ52TY&show_border=false&link_opens_in_new_window=true" style="height: 240px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 120px;"></iframe><b>Pesto Salmon 青酱三文鱼/鲑鱼</b><br /><i>Ingredients</i>: <br />1-2 tbsp homemade pesto<br />1/2 lb fresh, wild-caught Sockeye salmon fillet<br /><br /><i>Directions</i>: Slather pesto marinade on the salmon fillet and coat the fillet evenly with marinade.

Dijon Mustard Roasted Salmon 法国芥茉烤鱼

The wholegrain <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2013/08/dijon-mustard-honey-chicken-wings.html">Dijon mustard</a> is sitting in the fridge for the longest time, and very comfortably at its own seat. I almost forgotten about it after using it for <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2013/08/dijon-mustard-honey-chicken-wings.html">Dijon mustard honey chicken wings</a>.<br /><img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3954/15295222630_2883f11386_z.jpg" /><br /><br />In fact, I am not a big fan of mustard (as condiment, marinade, sauce or dressing) for anything. That is why I never really quite remember the mustard in the fridge. However, it is a good way to quickly add flavor to a base marinade. Instantly, the marinade or seasoning turns sharp and pungent depending on how much mustard you add.  <br /><img src="https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2946/15458832906_54d5fd079d_z.jpg" /><br /><br /><a name="more"></a><img src="https://farm3.staticflickr.com/2947/15458834666_0e647e5ae9.jpg " /><br /><br /><iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ss&ref=ss_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=anestofo-20&marketplace=amazon&region=US&placement=B001L5TVGW&asins=B001L5TVGW&linkId=XNOWZON2RRZIBD7S&show_border=true&link_opens_in_new_window=true" style="height: 240px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 120px;"></iframe><b>Dijon Mustard Roasted Salmon 法国芥茉烤鱼</b><br /><i>Ingredients</i>:<br />1 lb wild salmon, cut into 4 pieces (each piece about 1.5-2 inch width)<br />1 tbsp <a href="http://teczcape.blogspot.com/2013/08/dijon-mustard-honey-chicken-wings.html">Dijon mustard</a> (Trader Joes wholegrain Dijon mustard)<br />1 tbsp of organic plain yogurt<br />2-3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil<br />Juice from half a lemon<br />Pinch of salt and black pepper<br /><br /><i>Directions</i>: Preheat oven to 375F.
