This simple Salmon Rillettes recipe combines wild salmon, Greek yogurt, capers, and fresh herbs for a flavorful spread. Serve with crackers or a baguette for a delicious appetizer or snack.
Ingredients
- Olive oil
- ½ pound skinless salmon fillet, preferably wild
- 2 teaspoons Herbes de Poisson, or 1 tablespoon each fennel, coriander and mustard seeds mixed with 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt, or more
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 2 tablespoons fennel bulb, diced
- 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon dill, finely chopped
- ½ tablespoon lemon juice, fresh
- 1 good pinch salt
- 5 grinds black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place the salmon in a small baking dish. Drizzle with a little olive oil, just enough to very lightly coat the salmon. Sprinkle the Herbes de Poisson over the salmon. Bake for 18–20 minutes. The salmon should be just cooked through.
- Place the cooked salmon in a mixing bowl. Add all the remaining ingredients to the bowl. Gently mix just to combine the ingredients. You want the salmon to break apart a little.
- Serve with crackers or a baguette.
