Slow Roasted Sesame Salmon

Recipe Ingredients

4		Salmon steaks, skin off - (6 to 7 oz ea)
2 tablespoons	30ml	Canola oil
2 tablespoons	30ml	White sesame seeds
2 tablespoons	30ml	Black sesame seeds
		Salt - to taste
		Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
1/4 cup	36g / 1.3oz	Chopped shallots
1 tablespoon	15ml	Grated ginger
1 teaspoon	5ml	Hot chili oil
1/4 cup	59ml	Dry sherry
1/4 cup	59ml	Fish or clam broth
2 tablespoons	30ml	Soy sauce

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Brush the salmon steaks lightly with some of the oil. Combine the two types of sesame seeds in a flat dish or pan and dredge the flesh side (not the skin side) in the sesame seeds and set aside. Combine the shallots, ginger, chili oil, sherry, broth and soy sauce in an oven-proof dish.

Season the steaks with salt and pepper.

Heat a saute pan over medium heat with the remaining canola oil and sear the salmon steaks on both sides to a golden brown, taking care not to burn the sesame seeds. Place the seared fish, sesame seeds up, on the seasoned shallots in the baking dish and put the salmon in the oven. Roast for 7 to 8 minutes for medium-rare, or until the fish is cooked to your preference.

Serve the roast salmon immediately with additional soy sauce, pickled ginger and chili sauce on the side.

This recipe yields 4 main course servings.
