Ingredients

- 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)

- 4 tbsp unsalted butter

- 1 tbsp white miso paste

- 1 tbsp soy sauce

- 1 tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped

- 1 tbsp lemon juice

- Salt and pepper, to taste






Instructions


1. Preheat the Oven

Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). As it heats, you can start preparing the glaze and the salmon fillets.


2. Prepare the Brown Butter Miso Glaze

Melt the unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat. Let it cook until it starts to brown and emits a nutty aroma, being careful not to burn it. Once browned, take the skillet off the heat, and whisk in the white miso paste, soy sauce, and lemon juice. This blend of flavors offers a perfect balance of savory and tangy notes that will enhance the salmon perfectly.


3. Prepare the Salmon Fillets

Arrange the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and simplify cleanup. Generously brush the fillets with the brown butter miso glaze, ensuring each piece is well-coated for optimal flavor. Add salt and pepper to taste.


4. Bake to Perfection

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes, or until it is fully cooked and flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time may vary based on the fillets' thickness, so monitor them to prevent overcooking.


5. Garnish and Serve

After the salmon is cooked to perfection, take it out of the oven and garnish it with freshly chopped tarragon. The herb's mild anise-like flavor complements the savory glaze, adding an extra layer of complexity to the dish.




Final Thoughts

This Tarragon Salmon with Brown Butter Miso Glaze is not only a delight for the taste buds but also serves as a visually striking centerpiece for any meal.

- Wine Pairing: Chardonnay 

An oaked Chardonnay, with its buttery texture and hints of citrus and vanilla, pairs harmoniously with the brown butter miso glaze and the delicate tarragon flavors of the salmon.
