Salmon Sticks with Roasted Broccoli & Garlic

by Natasha on June 10, 2011 in broccoli recipe, dinner 101, fish recipes, salmon, salmon sticks

I make this dish at least once a month, I try to get fish on my family’s plate once a week & breaded salmon sticks with a cool tangy dip are definitely one of my best resources. Also if you’ve never roasted broccoli you have to try it, it’s so fun to have broccoli in a whole new way. Well, as fun as broccoli can be.

1 lb salmon filet, skin removed (just ask the butcher)
2 eggs
shredded parmesan cheese
italian breadcrumbs
fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
2 lemons

Broccoli florets, olive oil, garlic

1- Drizzle broccoli & peeled garlic cloves well with olive oil, spread on a baking sheet, season with s & p, bake at 375 for 7 minutes while you prepare salmon sticks.

2- Cut salmon into 1″ thick sticks. Line up dipping bowls by cutting board, one with whisked eggs & other with breadcrumbs, parm cheese & parsley. Dip sticks one at a time in egg (let excess drip off) then breadcrumbs, then place on greased baking sheet. (I like to bake mine on a rack on top of a sheet so the heat gets all around them)

3- Add salmon baking sheet to the oven & cook both broccoli & salmon for 15 min or until salmon sticks flake apart easily & broccoli has roasted tips.

4- While the food is baking make your dip as follows & let it sit in the fridge. Combine 1 cu lowfat sour cream (could also sub greek yogurt or lt mayo) with about 1 tbs dijon mustard, juice of 1 lemon, chopped parsley, 1 tbs lemon zest, s & p to taste.

    I'm going to try this recipe. How do I get to just the fish recipes on your blog? My 4 year only eats fish and puts up a fight when eating anything else. My husband on the other hand won't eat anything that taste "too fishy" if you know what I mean, would you know how to get rid of that "too fishy" taste? Love your blog, been following you since Sam was born! suenos_lt@hotmail.com

    Yeah, I get that same "too fishy" response from my hubby. That's why we cook a lot of salmon.

    Whatever fish you buy should always smell fresh & like saltwater, NEVER fishy. Also don't be shy to ask your butcher some q's. I always ask mine when did the fish come in (I like it when it arrives that day) & I've also asked their recommendation as to what fish would be mellow. I like sea bass & tilapia but sometimes I get some resistance from the family. Try the fish tacos recipe above, it's Tilapia & Sam actually loved it. Good luck!

    I made this for dinner two nights ago and BOTH of my girls (almost 3 and 4 1/2) asked for SECONDS!! That makes it a hit at our house! Thanks for the great recipes!

    I just made this for myself and my husband last night and we loved it. We didn’t do the broccoli, but the salmon sticks were amazing. I also didn’t have sour cream or parsley so for the dressing I just used mayo and added Old Bay for extra flavor. This will definitely be one of my go to salmon recipes from now on. Soo yummy, perfect for summer and definitely a crowd pleaser!
