It has been known since ancient times that fish is essential in the human diet as a source of essential vitamins and microelements. Salmon is a mastadon among other types of fish in this regard, because the content of substances useful to humans is simply off the charts. But, of course, salmon is famous for more than just this. With its taste qualities, it has made its way to the pedestal of fame and reliably holds the position of favorites among billions of people.

How to cook Healthy Salmon Steak

Step 1

Add salt, ground black pepper and sesame seeds to the fish to taste, coat with spices on both sides and leave for 15-20 minutes so that the steak can soak up the flavors and aromas.

Step 2

After the specified time, fry the steak over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side, sprinkling with lemon juice. When golden brown, remove the steak from the stove.

Healthy Salmon Steak - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use other types of fish instead of salmon for this recipe?

Yes, you can substitute salmon with other firm fish like trout, cod, or halibut. Adjust cooking time slightly based on the thickness of the fillet.

How can I make this recipe vegetarian-friendly?

For a vegetarian version, try using thick-cut portobello mushrooms or tofu steaks. Marinate them similarly and adjust cooking time as they cook faster than fish.

What’s the best way to store leftover cooked salmon steak?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or oven to avoid drying out.

Can I prepare the salmon marinade ahead of time?

Yes, you can marinate the salmon up to 24 hours in advance for deeper flavor. Keep it covered in the fridge until ready to cook.

What sides pair well with this salmon steak?

Try serving with roasted vegetables, quinoa, or a crisp green salad. A garlicky yogurt sauce or lemon-dill aioli also complements the flavors well.

Is this recipe suitable for a low-carb or keto diet?

Yes, salmon is perfect for low-carb diets. Just pair it with non-starchy veggies like asparagus or zucchini instead of grains.

Can I freeze the marinated salmon before cooking?

Yes, freeze the seasoned salmon in an airtight container for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the fridge before cooking.

How do I prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan?

Use a well-heated non-stick or cast-iron pan with a light coating of oil. Avoid moving the steak too soon—let it sear for 2-3 minutes before flipping.

What can I use instead of sesame seeds if I have an allergy?

Skip the sesame seeds or replace them with crushed nuts (if not allergic), hemp seeds, or sunflower seeds for a similar texture.
