A NYC-inspired twist — salmon fillets coated in bagel seasoning and broiled until crisp.
If you're a fan of the iconic everything bagel, you'll love this unique take on broiled salmon. This recipe combines the rich, oily goodness of salmon with the crunchy, savory flavors of everything bagel seasoning. It's a simple dish with a gourmet feel, perfect for a quick dinner or a special occasion. Let's dive into how to make Broiled Salmon with Everything Bagel Crust.
Ingredients:
Fresh OceanBox salmon fillets
Olive oil
Everything bagel seasoning
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Fresh dill or parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your broiler: Set your oven's broiler on high and let it warm up. Meanwhile, you can prepare the salmon.
2. Prepare the salmon: If your salmon fillets have skin, you can leave it on as it helps keep the fish moist during cooking. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels to ensure the seasoning sticks well.
3. Oil and season: Brush each salmon fillet lightly with olive oil. This not only helps the seasoning adhere to the salmon but also promotes a nice crust under the broiler. Generously coat the top of each fillet with everything bagel seasoning. Press the seasoning gently into the salmon to make sure it's well adhered.
4. Broil the salmon: Place the salmon fillets on a broiler pan or a foil-lined baking sheet for easy cleanup. Broil the salmon about 6 inches from the heat source. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your fillets, but generally, it takes about 6-10 minutes. The goal is a golden crust on top and a salmon that flakes easily with a fork but remains moist inside.
5. Garnish and serve: Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh dill or parsley if desired. The lemon adds a nice zesty contrast to the rich, savory flavors of the everything bagel crust.
This dish is wonderfully versatile and pairs beautifully with a variety of sides. Consider serving it with a light salad, steamed vegetables, or even atop a creamy risotto. The robust flavors of the everything bagel seasoning bring a delightful twist to the salmon, making it a dish that's sure to impress.
