This is my 3rd use of the McCormick Spice Blend packages. This stuff is so handy and, even though the entire recipe is enclosed and I while I will use the recipe again, I probably won't buy the pre-packaged spices. But it's a great concept and if you work outside the home and have children, this is a wonderful way to serve a terrific dinner for you family.
I always try to serve salmon at least once or sometimes twice a week. This is such a great recipe. The broccoli rabe was a great side dish and we're still getting sweet, crisp corn-on-the-cob. Plus, I've discovered the BEST rosemary/salt rolls at Fresh Market here in Chattanooga. This was really a great meal. I also made a wonderful Apple Cake, which I'll get a photo of and post next.
ASIAN SESAME SALMON (8 servings....I obviously cut this down to feed just us two)
PACKAGE INCLUDES (or you can assemble on your own)
2 tsp toasted sesame seed
1 tsp minced garlic (dried)
1 tsp minced onion (dried)
3/4 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (optional, or to taste)
YOU WILL NEED:
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions
2 Tbsp soy sauce
2 lbs salmon fillets
DIRECTIONS:
Mix honey, green onions, soy sauce, and all of the spices except crushed red pepper in a small bowl until well blended. Stir in crushed red pepper to taste. Place salmon in a 13x9 (I used a much smaller dish since I was using a 3/4# salmon fillet) baking dish. Spoon honey mixture evenly over salmon.
Roast in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 20 minutes. Baste occasionally with honey mixture.
BROCCOLI RABE
1# broccoli rabe (rappini)
2-3 cloves of garlic, sliced
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/4 to 1/2 cup chicken broth
lemon
Saute garlic slices in olive oil until just clear, not brown. Add broccolini and saute for a few minutes. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Turn heat down, cover and cook until broccolini is tender. Squeeze lemon over broccolini.
