Instructions
-
Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 450°F (230°C). This high temperature will help the salmon cook quickly and evenly, resulting in a beautifully roasted fish with a perfect, flaky texture. 🔥
-
Prepare the Baking Pan: Line a baking pan with aluminum foil for easy clean-up. Place the salmon steaks on the foil, skin-side down if your salmon still has skin. This will prevent sticking and make it easier to serve the salmon later. 🥄
-
Mix the Dill Dressing: In a small bowl, stir together your favorite Caesar dressing with the dried dill. The Caesar dressing adds a rich, creamy flavor that complements the dill perfectly, creating a delightful herb-infused topping for the salmon. 🌿
-
Spread the Mixture: Generously spread the dill and Caesar dressing mixture over the top of each salmon steak. Make sure each piece is well coated, as this will not only add flavor but also help keep the salmon moist during roasting. 🍶
-
Roast the Salmon: Place the baking pan in the center of your preheated oven. Roast the salmon for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the tip of a knife inserted into the center of the salmon comes out warm. The cooking time may vary slightly depending on the thickness of your salmon steaks, but for 1-inch thick steaks, 8 to 10 minutes should be perfect. ⏲️
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a minute or two. Garnish with fresh dill for an extra burst of flavor and a touch of color. Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy a delicious, healthy meal! 🌿🍽️
Tips and Tricks
- Choose Fresh Salmon: For the best flavor and texture, always choose fresh, high-quality salmon. Look for firm, moist fillets with a fresh, mild scent.
- Check for Doneness: If you’re unsure whether the salmon is cooked through, use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Experiment with Sides: This dish pairs wonderfully with a variety of sides, such as steamed vegetables, a fresh green salad, or a light quinoa pilaf.
