Creamy Dill Salmon/ Steelhead

 Ingredients:

• Salmon or steelhead fillet
• Trader Joe's vegan creamy dill dressing
• sea salt

Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a baking sheet with Pam, rinse the fish, and lay it out on the pan. Salt the fish, and pour just enough dressing on to mostly cover the fish. Bake for 20-30 minutes, and turn oven off. Allow to sit 30+ minutes in the cooling oven.

Optional sides: pasta with the remaining dressing, or pasta and peas with the remaining dressing. Plate with lemon and fresh dill.

Salmon Salad

Ingredients

1 lb salmon fillet, cooked, either poached, grilled, or gently fried, and cooled to at least room temperature
2 celery stalks - finely chopped
1/2 red onion - peeled, finely sliced
1 Tbsp of capers (strain out the pickling juice)
The juice of 1 lemon (regular lemon, not Meyer lemon)
1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp fresh dill - chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Break cooked salmon into chunk sized pieces and add to bowl. Combine celery, red onion, capers, lemon juice, olive oil, fresh dill in a separate dish.
Gently add the dressing mixture into the bowl of salmon, mixing just enough so all pieces
are coated. Add a sprinkling of salt and ground pepper to taste. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to cool and to allow the flavors to blend.
Serve with a slice of lemon. Serves 4.

Lime-marinated Salmon

• 2 6-ounce salmon fillets with skin
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon butter
• a scant 1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
• 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

Melt butter, and mix with oil, five spice, and lime juice. Marinate salmon for 2 hours, or liberally brush marinade over salmon depending on how much time you have, and grill, or broil, or saute. Make sure to prevent salmon skin from sticking to the pan/grill.
