Ingredients

  • 4 1-1/2-inch thick salmon fillets (about 1-1/2 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons Morton® Coarse Kosher Salt, divided

  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons white wine
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

MORTON®
COARSE KOSHER SALT

  1. Brush salmon with 1 tablespoon oil and lemon juice.

  2. Season each fillet with 1/4 teaspoon Morton® Kosher Salt and 1 teaspoon fresh dill.

     

  3. Evenly sprinkle Morton® Kosher Salt on water-moistened ¹(Tip) shallow baking pan. Place fillets on wet salt and bake at 450° F until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes per inch of thickness. Do not turn. Remove fish to serving platter; keep warm. Discard the salt bed.

  4. While fish is baking, in a small skillet heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil and sauté onion until translucent. Stir in wine and deglaze pan. Add cream, remaining teaspoon Morton® Kosher Salt and remaining 5 teaspoons dill; simmer to reduce slightly.

     

  5. Sauce each fillet and serve.

Tips for Success:

  • For a 9-1/2×10-3/4×1-inch baking pan, pour 1/3 cup water into pan; sprinkle 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 cups Morton® Kosher Salt over water.
  • Fish fillets will not stick on salt bed – easy clean-up.
  • A 1-1/2 inch thick fish fillet will take about 15 to 20 minutes to cook through.
