Salmon with Spicy Miso Butter
By Tiffy Cooks
I am not kidding when I say I’ve made this recipe at least once a week for the whole month of May. It is savory, refreshing, healthy, and takes less than 20 minutes to make.
You NEED to give this Salmon with Spicy Miso Butter a try! The spicy miso butter honestly tastes good with EVERYTHING; it is tangy, garlicky, spicy, and packed with umami flavors! The butter also keeps the salmon tender and juicy.
Ingredients
- 2 piece Salmon
- Salt & pepper r to season
Miso Butter
- 4 tbsp Butter unsalted
- 1 tbsp Miso Paste
- 1.5 tbsp Korean Red Chili Paste
- 2 tbsp Fresh Dill chopped
- 1 Lemon 1 whole lemon's juice
- 1 tsp Lemon zest
- 2 cloves Garlic grated
Instructions
- Mix room temperature butter, miso paste, Korean red chili paste, fresh chopped dill, juice of 1 lemon, 1 tsp of lemon zest, and 2 cloves of grated garlic in a bowl. This can last in the fridge for up to 2 weeks; add as much miso butter you want on the salmon, and double the recipe if you’re going to make the butter in bulk.
- Pat dry the salmon and season with salt and pepper.
- In a pan, add in oil and turn the heat up to medium-high. Once the pan is hot, add in the salmon and pan fry for 4 minutes on each side.
- Add on your desired amount of miso butter, put the lid on, and let it cook for another 3 minutes or until cooked. This process helps “steam” the salmon, which cooks faster and keeps the salmon moist.
- Garnish with green onion and sesame seeds.
