Greetings from the land of SALMON! Seriously, the Northwest is so well known for salmon, but for those of us who live here...CAN GET BORING!!! I always buy the best quality salmon, if I buy it, and don't usually mess with it too much. Salt, pepper, olive oil and a tiny squeeze of lemon is all I like on a good piece of salmon.
OK, this recipe is so yummy and a nice alternative for salmon. In the past I have made a salad with cold, grilled salmon and tapenade, but never actually put the tapenade in the salmon before broiling...YUMMY.
The recipe is from Dorie Greenspan's Around My French Table, I have the cookbook downloaded to my I-pad, very handy!

I'm glad you found a new way to prepare salmon!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stoping by my blog…nice to meet you! Salmon is one of my favorites and I agree with you a little salt, pepper and olive oil is a perfect way to cook it! However, I actually enjoyed Dories recipe! Happy friday!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about buying the best salmon available but sometimes the price difference is tempting. Good salmon doesn't need much but this recipe was a nice change of pace wasn't it? Yours looks very good.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, Gracie. Even though we used White Sea Bass, we really enjoyed the flavor combination, too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

Your salmon looks so fresh and delicious and I agree, salmon usually does not need much to "dress it up" but this recipe is just wonderful!
