Salmon Portions

There’s nothing quite like sinking your teeth into a perfectly cooked piece of salmon. Whether it’s the tender texture, rich flavor, or impressive health benefits, salmon has earned its place as a household staple across the U.K. At Seafood Direct, we’re excited to guide you through the process of creating a mouthwatering seafood feast with our Salmon Portions Skin On 2 Pack.

Our Salmon Portions offer the freshest taste of wild-caught salmon, conveniently packaged with two skin-on portions. Whether you're planning an intimate dinner or a special lunch to share with loved ones, these salmon portions are versatile and perfect for any occasion. Comprising 97.4% Salmon (Salmo Salar) and 2.6% salt, they retain their natural flavors and nutrients, with just a hint of seasoning.

But how do you turn these delicious portions into a true seafood feast? Let’s dive in.

Buy Frozen Salmon Filets  

Before you start planning your meal, ensure you have the best quality salmon on hand. Seafood Direct’s Salmon Portions are frozen to lock in the freshness, giving you a restaurant-quality dining experience right at home.

How Much Seafood Do You Buy Per Person?  

When preparing a seafood feast, a good rule of thumb is to plan for around 175-200 grams (6-7 oz) of salmon per person. This will provide generous portions without leaving anyone hungry. If your guests are big seafood lovers, you can increase the amount slightly to ensure everyone is satisfied.

Choose Your Cooking Method  

The way you cook your salmon can transform its flavor and texture.  

- Grilling offers a smoky, charred finish.

- Frying adds a crispy outer layer, perfect for those who love a crunchy bite.  

- Baking allows the salmon to cook in its own juices, preserving its tenderness and flavor.  

We recommend trying different methods to discover your favorite. You could even prepare the portions using two different methods for variety in your feast!

Pair with the Right Sides  

Salmon’s versatility means it pairs beautifully with a wide variety of side dishes. For a light, healthy option, serve your salmon with a fresh, crisp salad or roasted vegetables. For a more indulgent experience, creamy mashed potatoes or garlic butter pasta can perfectly complement the rich flavor of the fish. You might even try quinoa or couscous for a modern twist.

Season to Perfection  

While salmon is delicious on its own, the right seasoning can elevate the dish. Classic pairings like lemon and dill bring out its natural flavor, but feel free to experiment.  

- For an Asian-inspired touch, marinate your salmon in a mixture of soy sauce, honey, and ginger.  

- For a sweet and tangy flavor, coat it with a honey, mustard, and garlic glaze.  

The key is to season to taste, enhancing the salmon without overpowering it.

Don’t Forget the Sauce  

A delicious sauce can be the final touch that brings your seafood feast together.  

- Try a homemade tartar sauce for a tangy kick.  

- A lemon and caper sauce can add brightness to your plate.  

- For a touch of sophistication, serve with a creamy dill sauce.  

These sauces not only complement the salmon but also add extra depth to the overall meal.

Pair with the Right Drink  

No seafood feast is complete without the perfect drink pairing. For salmon, a light white wine such as Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc works beautifully. If you prefer beer, opt for a crisp lager. Non-alcoholic options like sparkling water with a slice of lemon or a citrus-infused iced tea can also refresh the palate between bites.

Serve and Enjoy!  

Once everything is prepared, it’s time to serve and indulge in your delicious homemade seafood feast. Garnish with fresh herbs or lemon slices for a vibrant finish and dig in!
