Zov's Spicy Marinated Salmon With Charmoula Sauce

Type: Fish
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Skinless salmon fillets - (6 oz ea)
  Zov's Warm Spice Mixture - (see recipe)
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
3   Ripe tomatoes - diced
2 tablespoons 30mlMinced fresh cilantro or basil
1 tablespoon 15mlOlive oil
3   Garlic cloves - minced
1/2   Red onion - peeled, diced fine (large)

Recipe Instructions

Rinse salmon in cold water and pat dry. Rub with generous amount of Zov's Warm Spice Mixture on both sides and season with salt and pepper.

In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes and cilantro; set aside.

Heat nonstick grill pan on high heat until very hot. Sear salmon, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. If salmon needs additional cooking, place in a 350 degree oven until just cooked through. No oil is necessary when sauteeing in a nonstick frying pan because of the natural oils in the salmon, but if you don't use a nonstick pan, saute salmon in 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

In a medium skillet, make Charmoula Sauce by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high heat. Add garlic and onion and cook, shaking handle of skillet to toss ingredients, until onion softens, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in tomato mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Presentation: Place salmon on serving platter. Top with the Charmoula Sauce and serve.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
