Everything Salmon With Creamy Caper Sauce

Everything Salmon With Creamy Caper Sauce
Bryan Gardner for The New York Times. Food Stylist: Greg Lofts.

Recipe by Carolina Gelen | Total time: 30 minutes

Covered in a crisp, everything-seasoning crust and served with a creamy, tangy caper sauce, this quick, weeknight salmon dinner is inspired by the beloved flavors of bagels and lox. The application of everything bagel seasoning forms a crisp crust on the fish fillets, adding deep flavor while preserving moisture. (You can use store-bought everything bagel seasoning, if you've got it, or create your own blend using pantry staples like sesame seeds, poppy seeds, granulated garlic and granulated onions.) Beneath the salmon, there's a tangy cream cheese caper sauce laced with a subtle hint of lemon. For a refreshing bite, typical bagel and lox toppings — red onions and tomatoes — make a refreshing salad that rounds out the dish.
