Sea Food Recipes : Grilled Salmon Sandwich with Dill Sauce

Sea Food Recipes : Grilled Salmon Sandwich with Dill Sauce

Ingredients :

 4 slices bacon

 1 (1 pound) fillet salmon, cut into 2 portions

 1 tablespoon olive oil

 1/3 cup mayonnaise

 1 teaspoon dried dill weed

 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest

 4 slices country-style bread, toasted

 4 slices tomato

 2 green leaf lettuce leaves

Cooking Method :

1. Cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.

2. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Evenly coat the salmon with the olive oil.

3. Cook the salmon on the preheated grill with the skin side down for about 5 minutes before flipping and cooking on the other side until the skin can easily be lifted off the flesh, about 5 minutes more. Flip the salmon once more and continue cooking until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, another 2 to 3 minutes.

4. Whisk the mayonnaise, dill, and lemon zest together in a small bowl; divide between 2 of the toasted bread slices. Top each with 1 portion of cooked salmon, 2 tomato slices, 2 bacon slices, 1 lettuce leaf, and a remaining slice of toasted bread.

Sea Food Recipes : Pepper-Honey Cedar Plank Salmon

Ingredients :

 2 (12 inch) untreated cedar planks

 1/4 cup pineapple juice

 1/3 cup soy sauce

 2 tablespoons white vinegar

 2 tablespoons lemon juice

 1 tablespoon olive oil

 3/4 cup honey

 1/4 cup packed brown sugar

 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

 1/2 teaspoon paprika

 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

 6 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless salmon fillets

 1 pinch salt and pepper to taste

Cooking Method :

1. Soak the cedar planks in warm water for 1 to 2 hours. Add a splash of bourbon to the water if desired.

2. Bring the pineapple juice, soy sauce, vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, and honey to a simmer in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and stir in the sugar, 1 teaspoon black pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced to a syrupy consistency, about 15 minutes. Set the sauce aside.

3. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. Place the planks on the grate. They are ready to cook on when they start to smoke and crackle just a little.

4. Season the salmon with a light sprinkling of salt and pepper. Place the fillets onto the smoking cedar planks, close the lid of the grill, and cook for 10 minutes. Spoon a small amount of the sauce over the salmon fillets, and continue cooking until the fish turns opaque in the center, about 5 minutes more. Serve with the remaining sauce.
