Provided by Claire Nolan

Categories     Dinner

¼ cup olive oil
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 lemon, juiced
2 lemons, sliced

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 tablespoons olive oil
8 garlic cloves
1 lb salmon
1/2 lb asparagus, fresh
4 tablespoons cheese, shredded (I used a combination of parmesan, romano and asiago)

  • Brush small amount of oil on asparagus and set aside.

  • Place salmon on preheated grill. Cook on medium high heat for 4-5 minutes. Just before turning salmon place asparagus on grill. Turn salmon and cook another 4-5 minutes or until the fish reaches 145°F internally.

BROILED SALMON AND ASPARAGUS WITH HERBS



Broiled Salmon and Asparagus With Herbs image

Many people fear the broiler because they don't know how to use it, or they're worried they'll overdo it and end up with a scorched dinner. But when used properly, it's a useful tool ideal for crisping chicken skin, charring vegetables and melting cheese. Broiling is also a great method for perfectly cooking salmon: It yields a deeply browned crust and a tender center that isn't overcooked. All broilers are different, and knowing the strength of yours and being aware of any uneven "hot spots" help maximize the efficiency of it. (As your dish cooks, look to see if it's cooking evenly across the surface, which will tell you if you need to move things around.) In this recipe, soy-and-mustard-coated salmon and asparagus cook under the broiler, and are topped with an herb salad for a hit of brightness, freshness and acidity.

Provided by Yasmin Fahr

Categories     dinner, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch cilantro, leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped
1 bunch parsley, leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped
1 small bunch mint or dill, leaves picked, roughly chopped
4 scallions, light green and white parts, sliced
1/4 to ½ teaspoon red-pepper flakes, according to taste
3 tablespoons lemon juice, plus more as needed
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed
Salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 large bunch asparagus, woody ends trimmed
4 (4- to 6-ounce) salmon fillets, at least ¾-inch thick

Steps:

  • In a medium serving bowl, toss together the herbs, scallions, red-pepper flakes, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Season with more lemon or oil as needed until the leaves look glossy. Set aside.
  • Heat the broiler with a rack 6 inches from the heat source.
  • In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce and mustard until smooth. Add the asparagus to a large sheet pan, toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, then season well with salt and pepper. Move the asparagus to the sides, and place the salmon skin side down in the center. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, brush the tops and sides with the soy mixture, then toss the asparagus in the rest of the soy mixture. (Use a paper towel to wipe off excess soy on the sheet pan, as it will smoke.)
  • Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, and 8 to 10 minutes for medium, depending on the strength of your broiler and the thickness of the salmon. (Reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes for thinner fillets.) If it looks like it's browning too quickly or smoking excessively, move to a lower rack to finish cooking. Top the salmon and asparagus with the herb salad or serve on the side with a final round of pepper.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Asparagus, Lemon and Brown Butter image

Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.

Categories     seafood, vegetables, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • Reduce heat to medium and add butter to skillet. Cook, stirring, until foam subsides and butter is deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. (Be careful not to burn). Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice, capers, peas, parsley and cooked asparagus. Season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED SALMON AND ASPARAGUS SALAD



Grilled Salmon And Asparagus Salad image

Provided by Jacques Pepin

Categories     dinner, lunch, salads and dressings, appetizer, main course

Time 30m

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large salmon fillet (2 pounds), about 1-inch thick, cleaned of bones, skin and sinew (about 1 3/4 pounds cleaned)
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup water
1 1/2 pounds large asparagus spears (with tight heads), lower third peeled and the spears cut on the slant into 1-inch pieces
4 medium-size ripe tomatoes (about 1 3/4 pounds)
2 medium-size onions (about 6 ounces), peeled, sliced thin and separated into rings
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon salt
4 to 6 sprigs fresh tarragon, chopped

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the salmon on both sides with the canola oil, salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Light a grill with a very clean rack and heat it until very hot.
  • Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a large skillet and add the asparagus in one layer. Cover, bring to a boil and boil gently for about 3 minutes, until most of the water has evaporated. Drain the asparagus and set it aside, uncovered, so it will cool without discoloring.
  • Cut the tomatoes crosswise into 1/4-inch slices. Divide the slices among six plates and, leaving space in the center and around the edge of each plate, arrange the tomatoes in a slightly overlapping circular pattern. Divide the onion rings among the plates and arrange them on top of the tomatoes.
  • In a bowl, mix together the dressing ingredients and dribble the dressing over the tomatoes and onions on the plates. (This can be done up to 1 hour ahead.)
  • When ready to serve, place the salmon on the grill and cook, covered (if your grill has a lid) for about 2 1/2 minutes on each side, or for about 3 minutes, uncovered, on each side. Transfer the salmon to a serving plate and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before carving. (While resting, it will continue to cook in its own residual heat. It should be somewhat rare in the center.)
  • With the asparagus pieces, create a border around the tomatoes and onions. Cut the salmon into 1/2-inch slices and arrange them in the center of the plates. Sprinkle with tarragon and serve immediately.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS WITH LEMON DRESSING



Grilled Asparagus With Lemon Dressing image

Although steamed asparagus has an unmatched purity of taste, I love the earthy, charred flavor added by the grill, a flavor that can also be achieved with stove-top pan grilling, which combines high heat and a dry, heavy skillet.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 to 2 pounds large asparagus
Olive oil as needed, about 2 tablespoons
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Juice of 3 lemons
2 tablespoons minced shallots or scallions
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus; most spears will break an inch or two from the bottom. Peel the stalks up to the flower bud. Meanwhile, start a charcoal fire or heat a gas grill; if you're cooking indoors, heat a cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it smokes.
  • To grill the asparagus spears, toss them with about a tablespoon of oil, mixing with your hands until spears are coated. Season well with salt and pepper. Grill until tender and browned in spots, turning once or twice, in all 5 to 10 minutes.
  • To pan grill the asparagus, do not oil or season them. Just toss them in the hot skillet, and cook, turning the spears individually as they brown, until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove as they finish, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Mix together the lemon juice and shallots, then stir in enough olive oil to add a little body and take the edge off the sharpness of the lemon; the mixture should still be strong. Season it well with salt and plenty of black pepper, and stir in the parsley. Serve the asparagus hot or at room temperature with grilled fish. Spoon the sauce over everything.

Tips:

  • Choose thick asparagus stalks: They should be about the same thickness as your finger.
  • Use a variety of citrus fruits: This will add a complex flavor to the dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: Leave some space between the salmon and asparagus so they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the salmon to your desired doneness: Medium-rare is recommended for a moist and flaky fish.
