My favorite way to cook salmon, hands down. I keep it in mind as more of a technique than an actual recipe because you can change it up in so many ways. Different sauces, or seasonings, or adding to various dishes.         Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/30/2010   I made this for dinner tonight after seeing the Lee brothers on Martha. I have to say it was fantastic! The sauce is delicious, but more than that, this is such a great method for cooking salmon (or any other fatty fish I assume). Such a great, easy technique :D

Ingredients

1/2 cup chopped fresh mint leaves (from about 8 sprigs) 1/2 cup whole or low-fat buttermilk 1/2 cup sour cream 1 teaspoon coarse salt 3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 pound skin-on salmon filet 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Place mint, buttermilk, sour cream, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the bowl of a food processor or jar of a blender; process until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a bowl; set sauce aside.

Add 2 teaspoons oil to a large cast-iron skillet or broiler pan; place under broiler so that bottom is about 5 inches from heat source. Turn broiler on.

Score salmon skin crosswise in three places to roughly portion the fish into 4 pieces. Rub remaining teaspoon oil over skin; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper.

When oil in skillet begins to smoke, lay fish, skin-side up, in skillet and cook until skin is blistered and charring, about 5 1/2 minutes for medium-rare.

Cut salmon along scoring lines into 4 portions. Serve, skin-side up, with sauce.
