This recipe originates from the Portuguese dish of grilled fish and pork served with coriander-infused olive oil. It's so simple it's almost not a recipe, but the result is so elegant you could serve it at a dinner party. Use the finest extra-virgin olive oil you have.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup (60 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 pieces salmon fillet or steaks (each about 6 oz/175 g)
- 3/4 tsp (4 mL) salt
- 1/4 tsp (1 mL) black pepper
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) finely chopped fresh coriander
- 2 tsp (10 mL) lemon juice
Preparation
With 2 tsp/10 mL of the oil, lightly brush salmon all over; sprinkle with 1/2 tsp/2 mL of the salt and pepper.
Place coriander on chopping board and sprinkle with remaining salt; mince vigorously until almost paste. In small bowl, stir together with lemon juice and remaining oil.
On greased rack, broil salmon 6 inches/15 cm under element or grill over medium-high heat, turning once halfway through, until fish flakes easily, 8 to 10 minutes. Spoon coriander oil over and around salmon.
Makes 4 servings.
