Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh dill
• 1 cup fresh parsley
• 0.5 small red onion
• 2 tablespoons non-pareil capers
• 3 medium garlic cloves
• 0.5 teaspoon lemon zest
• 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• 0.5 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 whole salmon
• 1 sufficient high-quality olive oil

Instructions

1. Prepare the salsa verde. Gather all the ingredients.
2. Prepare the salmon for slow-roasting. The salmon should be slow-roasted in high-quality, buttery olive oil. This method is a semi-confit of the salmon, which gives us all the benefits of confit without fully submerging the salmon in oil. The oil helps lock in the flavor while slowly simmering around the protein.
3. Slow-roast the salmon. This process doesn't add any color, but it adds a myriad of flavor. It's worth the wait for an even cook and a delicate salmon!
4. Assemble the dish. Once the salmon is slow-roasted, assemble it with the salsa verde.
