Rosemary Lemon Salmon & Shrimp

This Rosemary Lemon Salmon & Shrimp recipe combines the rich flavors of salmon and shrimp with the brightness of lemon and the earthy aroma of rosemary. It’s a quick, elegant, and flavorful meal perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

(Serves 4)

For the Salmon & Shrimp:

  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Lemon slices and sprigs of rosemary (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Marinate the Salmon and Shrimp

  • In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Place the salmon fillets and shrimp in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over them, ensuring they’re evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 15-30 minutes in the refrigerator.

2. Preheat the Oven or Grill

  • Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  • Grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

3. Cook the Salmon

  • If using the oven, place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is flaky and cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F/63°C).
  • If grilling, place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side.

4. Cook the Shrimp

  • In the last 5 minutes of cooking the salmon, add the shrimp to the same pan or grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque.

5. Serve

  • Arrange the salmon fillets and shrimp on a serving platter. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs, lemon slices, and an additional drizzle of olive oil if desired.

Tips

  • Pan-Seared Option: You can also cook the salmon and shrimp in a skillet over medium heat for a crispier texture. Sear the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side and the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Side Pairings: Serve with roasted vegetables, garlic mashed potatoes, or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
  • Make It Spicy: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a subtle kick of heat.

This Rosemary Lemon Salmon & Shrimp is a versatile dish that’s bursting with fresh, zesty flavors. Perfect for a quick dinner or an elegant gathering! 🍋🦐🐟
