Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 red onion, halved lengthwise and very thinly sliced
1 lemon, very thinly sliced, seeds removed
1 clove garlic, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 1 1/2-pound piece center-cut skinless salmon fillet
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
  • Toss the onion, lemon and garlic with a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Spread the mixture in the center of a 24-inch-long piece of heavy-duty foil. Put the salmon on top of the onion mixture, drizzle with the butter and sprinkle with the Italian seasoning and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Bring the 2 long sides of foil together and fold over twice to seal. Bring the ends of the foil in and crimp to seal, leaving a bit of room for steam to circulate inside.
  • Place the packet on the grill and cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Careful of the steam, open the packet and check the salmon. It should be mostly opaque with a slightly rosy center. Transfer the package to a cutting board and set aside for about 5 minutes.
  • Cut the salmon into 4 equal pieces and transfer to 4 plates. Evenly spoon the onions, lemons and collected juices over the salmon.

GRILLED CARIBBEAN SALMON STEAKS WITH FRESH FRUIT SALSA



Grilled Caribbean Salmon Steaks With Fresh Fruit Salsa image

An original recipe created for Around the World Recipe Swap. Many thanks to Elly in Canada, for her valued advice and capable assistance. Elly, we should open a restaurant... You chop and add the wine...I will saute... Easy as One, Two Three. One for the recipe, two for Elly, (that makes three). The ingredient, champagne grapes, are tiny blue, very sweet grapes, are also referred to as currant grapes. These can be purchased fresh from your specialty shop, at the end of the growing season. They are left on the vine a little longer to become a very sweet fruit, ideal for recipes where natural sweetness is the preferred method over the addition of refined sugar.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 salmon steaks
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup cooking oil
1/2 cup dry white wine (if you prefer, white rum can be used instead of wine)
1 lemon, zest of
1/2 lemon, juice of (and pulp)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 ripe mango, peeled and cubed (discard pit)
1 slice papaya, wedge from a large fruit, peeled and cubed (discard seeds)
1 red plum, with skin, cut into thin wedges (discard pit)
1 peach, with skin, cut into thin wedges (discard pit)
1 ripe avocado, peeled and cubed (do as you like with the pit)
1/4 cup champagne grapes, also called currant grapes
2 -3 sprigs fresh parsley, chopped
4 bamboo skewers, for securing salmon halves after cutting (or other material)

Steps:

  • Lay the salmon steaks on a cutting board. With a sharp chef's knife cut the bone on either side. Remove bone and discard. You now have 2 pieces for each steak.
  • Turn one half of the salmon steak over; with skin side out, lightly press the thick fleshy parts together. You now have two tail pieces on opposite ends.
  • Fold the right side tail piece around the left flesh; Fold the left side tail piece around the right flesh. You now have a salmon steak resembling a pin wheel.
  • Skewer each salmon steak, through one tail piece, into the thick flesh of both halves, and through the opposite tail piece. This will hold it together while cooking.
  • Heat 1/2 the butter and 1/2 cooking oil together, over medium heat. Watch it does not burn.
  • Cook salmon steaks 5 - 6 minutes on each side. (If you have a ridged griddle pan, use it; it will imprint lovely cooked ridges, and will not allow meat to stick).
  • To prepare the salsa: combine mango, papaya, plum, and peach.
  • In an appropriately sized sauce pan, combine white wine (or rum if you prefer), with lemon juice, lemon zest and brown sugar; bring to a rapid boil.
  • Turn down heat under liquid and allow to simmer.
  • Add fruit from Step 7, and cook slowly until mixture thickens and begins to resemble chutney; remove from heat.
  • At this point, add avocado, champagne grapes and chopped parsley. Mix carefully to heat through. This method will prevent bursting of the tiny grapes.
  • Divide Fresh Fruit Salsa evenly, and spoon equally over salmon steak pinwheels.
  • Serve with your favourite accompaniments, such as rice; orzo; cous cous; or CooKoo (see CooKoo from Barbados Recipe #61903).
