Ingredients
- salmon filets
- salt & pepper
- lemon slices
- Dill whole pieces & some chopped
- Thin lemon peel sticks
Instructions
- Season your salmon filets to perfection. Place lemon slices and fresh dill on each filet, and seal them individually in vacuum-sealed bags using a reliable vacuum sealer.
- Fill a large pot with water and set up your sous vide immersion circulator. Adjust the temperature to a perfect 130°F, allowing the water to reach the desired temperature.
- Immerse the vacuum-sealed salmon into the heated water bath. Cook for 30-45 minutes for 1-inch thick filets or 45 minutes to 1 hour for thicker filets. This sous vide method ensures precise cooking for moist and flavorful results.
- Carefully remove the salmon from the bags, and discard the lemon slices and dill. Pat dry the salmon with paper towels, preparing them for the next step.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a touch of light olive oil. Place the salmon skin side down and give them a quick pan sear for a few seconds. This step enhances the texture and adds a delightful flavor dimension.
Notes
- Use salmon fillets that are roughly the same thickness so that they cook through at the same time.
- Feel free to use other fresh herbs for seasonings, fresh thyme or rosemary work great.
- Don't leave the salmon in the water bath for more than 30 minutes after it is cooked, or it can start to get mushy.
- Pan searing the fillets after cooking adds a delightful crispiness to the exterior while keeping the interior succulent.
- You can use any leftover salmon filets for salmon bowls, salmon salad or in sandwiches.
