Salmon with Lemon Vinaigrette and Crispy Capers
September 20, 2021
I made this Salmon with Lemon Vinaigrette and Crispy Capers mainly to try out the crispy capers recipe. I actually do not like capers, except these are rather good. You cover them in olive oil and cook them in the microwave. Then they are drained and become very crispy. I made a simple lemon vinaigrette for the roasted salmon which paired very well with the capers.
- Prep: 10 mins
- Cook: 15 mins
- Yields: 4 Servings
Directions
1Preheat the oven to 425° F.
2Put the salmon in a dish and pour half of the vinaigrette over. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour, flipping halfway through.
3Remove the salmon from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Discard the remaining liquid.
4Roast the salmon for about 12 minutes then drizzle with the desired amount of Lemon Vinaigrette and garnish with crispy capers.
Lemon Vinaigrette
1Squeeze the lemon juice into a measuring cup. Add the dijon, parsley, salt, and pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking constantly. Set aside. This makes not quite 3/4 cup of vinaigrette.
Crispy Capers
1Combine oil and add capers in a medium bowl (capers should be mostly submerged).
2Microwave until capers are darkened in color and have shrunk, about 5 minutes, stirring halfway through microwaving.
3Using a slotted spoon, transfer capers to a paper towel-lined plate (they will continue to crisp as they cool); set aside.
